Bob --
Have you heard that thing fire off thru the exhaust it has now?? It will absolutely drive him (neighbor) to buy a gun and come hunting for me. BUT.... there's always a big butt.... I'll be waiting...
I'm not doing ANY engineering on this car. I like it because it's SO SIMPLE! And I'm going to keep it that way -- to me -- that's the attraction! No A/C - No P/W - No P/Bs - not even a folding top to store! I love it. A motor - 4 tires - half a body... Pure simplicity.
