I was pretty quick to show this one to my wife. Look honey, see...I'm not
so crazy after all. There's someone even further over the edge than me!
But seriously...$40,000 would go an awful long way toward paying off my
second mortgage.
There are some pretty cool modifications. I like the stereo console below
the dash. I think the bazooka in the boot could go away, though.
I'm really facinated with the amount of work these guy's put into cramming
different engines and transmissions into our beutiful Alpines. Seems a
pitty they don't appreciate how wonderful the Rootes power plant fits and
works.
Hey, Rootes only said the performance was "sparkling".
Gasp, did he paint his windscreen pillars?
