Wow, that is cool! Gotta be fast!

I'm getting old because the first thing that crossed my mind was towing capacity.

[Jeremy airjer W]

They introduced that about a year to a year and a half ago. You can also order all the pieces and do your own build. I also remember something about all these cars start out as the base model shells.

I for one would have no problem driving that around wearing a leather jacket and an REO Speedwagon shirt with the windows down playing nothing but the stroke by billy squire while my mullet blows in the wind!

Jer, this would be more your speed then

Ya, I think they hit the market around 7/2007. I just heard about them today on Eastwood Garage.

[Hafnutz]

That thing is cool! Old Bert better be careful with the loud pedal in that one, it could get away from him.
