Of course if I had the dough I would go Intros.
Rob, I've got a set of six spoke wheels that have been in the works for a while which are just about ready to be cut. Think of a cross between the Forgelines and a set of BRM GT40 style wheels with a few other tweaks!

I'll see if I can dig up a couple of the renders.

Just found the files and emailed them to you. The more I look at it, the more I think the only similarity is that both wheels have six spokes. The spokes are basically styled off of the knock-off centers.

In addition to the six spoke you know what would really make this car

A set of Ford GT seats.

Matt got any of those

Haha, you're making these seats out to be like the holy grail. I guess that makes me like the Frenchman at the castle, in Monty Python and the Holy Grail, "I think we've already gots one!"

Dave, you don't want to see my little skunkworks operation. I'd say it is about like your build thread, that is to say, it is a complete wasteland with a couple cool parts tucked away here and there

I bought this little trinket. I think I will be able to fit it behind the right front wheel in front of the firewall.
