Car build
« on: November 14, 2008, 02:02:11 am »
Hi Meyhem Crew,
 I just finished building this little beauty. It has a 3.4 l. v6 and 200hp. Not much room for the boats but I can sure get to the pond fast

ggeorge,
Looks great, so what is the power to weight ratio?

Gordon Bennet Bob, does it really matter? The words "sh*t off a shovel" spring to mind!!!

That's God's way of driving, I still can't used to the steering wheel being on the right side now I don't drive the sweeper. And then there's wiggly stick thing that they call a gear lever....what's that all about then? And THREE pedals? I've only got two feet...why do I need three pedals?  :o

I am just expecting it to be better than Ferrarri's etc.
Gives some indication of actual performance.
Oh by the way, Love it!!

Looks much better without the bonnet George, rather reminds me of the '23 T buckets. Very nice indeed sir...my heartiest congratulations.
