    With the Mtech valences it'll look perfect.

    Any plans on motor work? Turbo???
    the thought has crossed my mind...too early to tell right now. it could happen though.

        My God that is nice. Even better that you know what to do with it.

            Thanks for all the positive comments, it always feels good to have that. I like the car and can't wait to get back into "the hobby". I'm excited. There's a track day coming up on July 20, in LA between NO and Baton Rouge at No Problem Raceway for those that might be interested, I'm probably going. Hit me up for more info. rcwells200269@hotmail.com

                Hey man nice fiver, I did not do the wheel, might be Alan's work (just wanted to clearify as I get numerous inquiries for wheel work) as I send all my wheel customers over there. The boots might be my work. Euros would look great on that car.

                      :oops: Hmmm, I would have sworn he mentioned your name. I dunno then, apologies for the bad intel. I'll have to get back with Mason and find out who DID do the work.

                      The a/c equipment was pulled from the car b/c Mason picked up a euro console which the US evaporator will not fit in. So, he pulled ALL the a/c equipment as it would be useless and he shaved some weight without it. Apparently the weather in WA is temperate enough to get by without a/c, but in MS it's something you kinda have to have. My understanding prior to purchase was that all the equipment was operable and he shipped all the components with the car, so let's hope that it will all work when reinstalled and recharged. Unfortunately, I will be working like a madman for the next month so it will be a while before I have the time to do it. The flipside of that is that I won't be in the car much at all, so it will be ok.

                      I actually had looked at the TCD site already, but not sure I want to sink $5k into a turbo system, at least not yet.

                        No worries the wheel looks great, it takes a good amount of time to make it look that good. If you are talking about Mason O'Lennick then I did make tricolor boots for him and they are on the way............
