Hi Guys:
Hope this works! I'm going to try to post a couple of pics. What do you think so far?

Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall and torque is how far you take the wall with you.

Thanks Hank

Here's a sideview. They're Halibrand Cobra III's. I'm going to put on the markings in a week, after the paint is good and dry.

Looks great, Mike! Where did you get that giant Q-tip you are using as a hood prop?

Mike, Your car is looking good! I like the blue and white as that is one color that is hard to beat. I really like the meatball on the front too.
I bet you can't wait to finish and begin cruising the streets.

Looks great.
The color is perfect.
I can't wait to be that far along on my spyder.
Thanks for the photos.
It's going to be one bad ride.

Sorry for the late reply, I was called away to work for the last week. The Blue that I used is a Ford KM Blue. I thought it would be too dark but it turned out perfect. I had the paint shop put in a little extra pearl, It looks really nice in the sunlight!
My brakes are stock mustang units cleaned up and painted red. The intake is from Very Cool Parts. It sounds fantastic when running. Thanks for the compliments guys.

Mike
