It was the program that came free with my camera, gets the point across though.

Here is an old sketch I did, lower the roof, hood scoop, some NOS or a blower and I have a Hot Rod.

Zebra madness

Reminds me of the tale of the elderly Scots tramp who turned up at an English gent's newly acquired Highland estate asking if there were any odd jobs he could do for a hot meal. The English gent considered for a while then produced a pot of bright pink paint and said - "Yes, old chap.Take this and recoat the porch at the back of the house...."
An hour later the tramp banged on the door. "All done sir. And by the way, it's not a Porche, it's a Mercedes......."

Thanks, I need the kind words because everytime I get in the car a little something snaps off, buzzes or stops working.

The latest thing is the sun visor.

That's right the drivers side sun visor will not stay up - blocks my view. The fix; thinking butterfly bolt and sheet metal screw, because adhesive backing on velco will melt in the sun. I've learned a few things keeping this beast on the road over the years.

The heat shield on at catalitic converter is buzzing again. Most likely worked lose because I need engine mounts or transmission mounts.

I only put about 2,500 miles a year on this car - gosh darn it I'm going to have fun with it - not going to let it die.
