Dug 'er back out of the depths yesterday. Fired up and suspension still lifts. Found the opossum bedding but apparently gave enough warning that the opossum wasn't home.
moved under its own power to the driveway-- first time it's been started since March... Maybe I won't do sChit to it (other than put the seat, belts and fuel cell back in it) and see if it survives Buttonwillow, too.
I'd suggest a JATO booster. Just for the straightaways though.

Fat Albert used the last of them...
Do you have a spare dead fishing boat? http://imcdb.org/images/002/033.jpg http://bt.eutorrents.com/imagehost/imag … frabbi.jpg I have only seen the movie dozens of times (in french only) as a kid and would love to see it done as a theme.
no, that I don't have. But I do have an Austin America (what looks to be what he's passing there). Perhaps I can build that up next and search for a boat in the meanwhile...
Clark W. Griswold/European Vacation theme?

i think a paddle from a boat would be much better to see in use going down the straights.

Clark W. Griswold/European Vacation theme?
We've had approximately a billion Family Trucksters so why not one of Sparky's other rides?
Drill a bunch of fake bullet holes in it, dress the team up as 1962 French cops, and make it the DS19 that saved Charles de Gaulle's life in a right-wing assassination attempt.
All sounds great, but not so sure I'm going to retheme for this race-- I've got 3 cars to get ready for Buttonwillow and one still isn't much of a car yet. And the drivers/teammates are spread out from here to Canada so help is, well, one guy who has to fight his wife to come over and listen to me whine for 1 hour. I'm trying to handle just the basics of safety & tech and, as time permits, track-worthiness.
Besides, I want to see a Scottsman and a French Canadian in this:
paint it kinda pumpkin orange with curved dark lines - fish scales. Call it what it is - CARP.
Or redux on air prance and glue an endless supply of paper airplanes on it.
this is what I was shooting for:
Just never got the wings and rudder made and mounted. If we have time (or help) will shoot to execute the original theme properly, even though airplanes are done too death.
WARNING! Keep your kids indoors. I just licensed this thing to drive on the road...
Yes, they actually gave me new plates on the spot.

He should just put a do-rag and halfro on the back of the car.

Or worse yet, so will Spank... or Jay! ( )
It sounds like we have a theme picked out for him already...
Sorry, but I was clueless until I googled it.
For anyone else too ashamed to admit you have no idea what they are referring to:
Autotune Remix FTW!
Got the crew out in full force doing all of those important upgrades with out $.05 residual...
... I might actually change the oil.
Nah. No need. BTW, I DEMAND pics of Apollo 18 to my email NOW. Don't make me find you.
Thanks for the good cheer! One week is a long time. I built the Mini in a week, the beetle is mostly done now.
Mostly.
