Very happy to see Waze is doing great and has a friend now. I like the at the COP modification; that will look very clean. Yeah, it is hard to find places that do the quality work these days. I am sure it is going to look great after you tackle it Chris. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Based on @RetroRacer Tony's comment, the cat seems to have escaped the bag.
So yes, I did a thing.

Very cool plate! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Was it obtained through DMV for street use or just a fake?

@Montreal914 - Through the DMV so that's the plate assigned to the car. I ordered them in the 1960s black/yellow and since CA doesn't do personalised plates in the proper year of mfg. blue/yellow, I ordered that "fake" one and plan to run it on the car. I'll carry the state issued plate with me, just in case.

Right, only black plate. Good work around with your fake blue. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sunglasses.gif)

Smart! I was wondering how you got vanity plates in blue/yellow. That's a nice workaround.

@nivekdodge Kevin - I made the aluminum one as part of a metal shaping class I took years ago. The plastic one (just a generic scoop from Summit) is for testing ideas for a cold air intake.

Nice progress of the Ferrari swap; glad the engine is in place.
On the super wide body car, what does it have for a drivetrain and transaxle?
Keep up the great work. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

@Cairo94507 Michael - It's currently running a SBC and stock side shifter. I'm lobbying for him to go LS3/Boxster 6-speed. We'll see.

It’s sick. I hope you get to make it sicker. When I first saw it I thought that is one brave dude. Lotta chopping but with a great outcome. I looked up the word Outlaw in the dictionary and found this picture. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

There is a saying………Cocaine ———God’s message that you have too much money.
Thinking …….wild ass projects ——-ditto
BTW ……..that is not criticism.
Your ability, creativity and energy needs to be bottled and sold!
