The body and engine bay aren't too bad actually (a little too much silver rattle can for my taste, but I have plenty of black and know where to get more). The only things ugly about the car are the interior and the buy it now price (maybe he meant $5500?) If it sells for $3500, I think most people here would be pizzed they didn't buy it.

That's what I'm thinking. . . Maybe he meant $15K or something like that.

Not my taste, but; a lot of stuff that some people like aren't my taste either. Someone likes it...

I'm sorry guys I don't see the humor in either of those two cars,

The mural paint work looks like someone spent a lot of time and did a very nice job (maybe I'd loose the smile on the stingray)

And as far as the Blower motor...........Loose the shorti side pipes and the rest looks good.

I think this winter has been to long for some of you guys.......Your getting a little punchie.

But all in all it's good to have a laugh!!!!!!!!!!
