By all means then, I think I speak for everyone when I advise you to choose Mrs. Wobby over the big tent.

I have already installed the LED’s

Yes. I think it was a guy in a Deuche Bonnet interacting with one of the Mercedes drivers that caused the disaster.

Yes. I think most of the LED kits are brighter–at least when seen straight-on. 

As the great Dan Gurney said, “At no time did we exceed 175 miles per hour.”

Hey, By the way: What’s everyone bringing to cookout? Are we doing a Hibachi grill too? Need any side dishes?

UPDATE UPDATE: SUCCESS!Well, boys, I drove a 15-mile round trip to pick up some Thai food and HOLY CRAP IS MY CAR QUIET!I seriously had no idea these cars could sound this not-loud. The burbling on decel is all gone. Backfiring is gone and the car is now quiet enough that you could have a human conversation in her at 60 mph.I never knew my tires…[Read more]

Think he’s wanting the main supports, not the bumper bracket. Those are question mark shaped, yes?

I don’t think mine are real visible either when the sun is on them. I’m trying to get into the habit of hand signaling.

My wife followed me in her Roadster. She claims my brake lights and turn signals were not visible in the sunlight. ??? All we got to do is get to Carlisle and back. See you Friday.

Welcome, Mike. Lots of people here have built and a few are still building. We’ll try our best to help and watch your progress with interest.

She was calling, “Oh please! Please take me away! Please hurry!”She pitched her traveling case into the Jaguar, scrambled in and wriggled across the seat…[Read more]

Totally you should rig them so they both buzz when you exceed 5200 rpm!

We can switch cars for a minute, Roy. Mine’s slow. BUT . . .Fingers crossed, think I may have the backfire and the carb ice issues both licked.
