    Just surfin round, looking at old IMSA pics, and disovered this:

    IMSA GTU, Sebring 1988. Caption on the photo says DNS. Mike, is there a story to tell?

    It's probably Nissan powered.

    Looks like a very cool car. That front valence looks familiar, but I just can't place it. Anyone know what it's from?

    It must have been fast...he's gridded in front of a prototype!

    Dayum, I'm no Guido fanboy, but that thing looks badass.

    I can't get it either. And I'm an IMSA fanboi.

    Yep, just the dreaded red X-in-a-Box.

    Hate it when the pic shows in the preview and the thread and then magically disappears.

    Hmm. I can still see it.

    Me too, but I right clicked the general area between the two lines, went to properties and C&P the address into a new window it worked...this time. Earlier it didn't. And yes, it's pretty bad ass.

    Now after doing that, and coming back here, it works. Weird.

    Try this. I think Tim got a bit anal about XML compliance with the new board.

    That link says "forbidden" to me.

    Hmm. It works when I click on it. Maybe this is one of the Clown's "funny" jokes.

    Does that say "The Wish the Childrens would have worked harder to make this photograph color Foundation" on the front?

    Pretty cool Guidistory from the land of Guidopolis.

    First thing I noticed too. It seems impossible to find wheels at a decent price in a reasonable distance for me.

    Me too. I just assumed it had the E36 swap.

    I got my signed clown poster yesterday including my very own World's Fastest Clown Nose!

    I thought it was going to come with darts, but it just came with balloons and a nose.

    Thanks Mike!

    I don't think it would have been an E36 swap in '88. Maybe an E28 drivetrain swap?
