I guess with the market trend these days being SUV style vehicles, this version will have a broader market appeal than a standard C3

I would like to have been at the BMV office when that owner took it down for certification as a 'street machine'. Apparently, it passed muster.

You know me, I'm aways on the hunt for new idea's or ummm inspiration!

The never ending list of mod's continue, but once the hood is complete the car should come off the liftunder it's own power.

I'm actually thinking of selling mine this year. Not sure, it costs me nothing right now, but I would want to add too many things to it before I am done.
My wife lost her job last year and money is getting tight.

I think I may have lost interest in it.
we'll see

Yeah, this is not a great time to have a hobby, though it does keep you occupied if you lower your sites a little.
