here is what i have so far... (reminder this mobo is a p3 and its very big... imagine the floppy drive as the hd... also the no vid card yet but i put my 9700 in there as a reference and it will work :)... and the psu isnt in any pics for i do not have a micro atx mother board or psu yet*if u have one and want to donate it i would be verry apreciative*... and these are just the first steps)

Everything but the psu fits :O^^^.. prolly gonna put a fan in the rear drivers side window and leds for head lights... and get some cathode running lights (its gonna be a snazzy hummer)

Also if i cant fit everything in micro atx form i will use an old lappy :) lcd mod if that happens
