That thing is a couple wraps of carbon fiber away from an excursion down to the Titanic.  What could possibly go wrong?

I (almost) always love the stuff you post. I'm glad you no longer post them in "cars for sale", since I'll never afford any of them!

You deserve you very own "you need this" part of the forum!

This, I love more than any of them! I've never worked on one that small. That would be SO COOL laugh

Thank you, I'm glad you appreciate them. It's just as much fun finding the car and writing them up.

Finding the true oddballs is definitely a team effort–stay tuned for many more from the team. wink
