    @13clicks, Lots of Zazzle in this period Roadster which seems inspired by the Bold N' Loud Roaring Roadsters...

    I really admire it and look forward to more as she comes together...

    Zazzle was a technique of camouflaging in wartime and in your well done vid there is a view from under the frame and the body seemed almost flat...so the Flage is doing its thing...

    ...I have did some gleaning of 13's Hotrod, and for the second time took in the video and it is in fact inspired by zazzle...TOO Cool...

    YES! The sound of victory. Way to stick with it and push through. Can't wait to see it in person in its new form.

    Oh yeah hope we cross paths some day. I am still working out the bugs on this pain in the ass. Next move is shocks and probably redo the steering down the line. This motor as some poop to it.
