  8. Nope, I just know how to hunt words for my honey when she plays scrabble.

    However, that's one I thought we would have seen around hot rods and metal work before. A backwards section, anti-section is one loud pedal used

    Good looking car! Glad you posted photos before the wiring went in, should help with the claim if it goes up in smoke. Bob

    SECTIONED spelled backward because the body is taller than stock. 2" taller.

    SCRABBLE. You are welcome to use that word if you can. Hope you get it on a double word score. When I used to play scrabble with my ex, I usually had 8 or 9 tiles on my tray so I could win. I never play by the rules. Same way I build cars.

    Nice job, cool idears. And unexpected... when I first saw the ***le of your thread, I ***umed it was just another "what the heck is this and how much is it worth" thread! Very pleasantly surprised it wasn't, at all. Gary

    THING A MABOB. I had a thread on this car 2 years ago while building it. Most comments were negative. One hamber came up with the name. He liked the car.

    Link? I don't see how I could have missed it but it does happen around here for some odd reason. Would love to see the build thread, too, please. Gary

    I don't care, I like it, it's crazy cool to me. I'm a fat guy on a skinny skeleton and the roadster I was building was imagination more than anything else.
