I'm just so happy that car wasn't over-restored and instead was simply brought back to a good running/driving condition, and I'm even happier to see it being run and driven, even if it's not being driving with a conviction more suited to it.

It's almost appropriate that the car-plane looks like some kind of Piper aircraft, considering they've built some real lemons over the years themselves.

Speedycop always has wonderfully ridiculous cars. He said that they bent the wheels on the donk they raced a few years back just from cornering loads. I know it was pretty loving hard to get around the car since it was always trying to go sideways on that narrow rear end track.

The most ridiculous vinyl top I ever saw was on a Volvo 850 sedan. With a sunroof.

They made the top to go around the sunroof. I can imagine the water that pooled up when it rained.

F20C with ITB's in a stripped and caged ae86. Big rear end wilwood brakes with a bias control in the cabin. S2000 digital dash. Rare rear end jdm rimz on the front and meisters on the back. Panel beaten metal fenders. Brides etc. 800kg 270bhp. Attention to detail was just incredible. He's gonna boost it next haha.

My mother's first new car was a Shadow ES V6 convertible 5-speed, which is as optioned out as that car got without the AT. 10 years later it became my older sister's first car and promptly got into 3 accidents. :(
