Went by West Coast Auto Craft and spied a few pics of the Steam Punk roadster. I know Chris posted some pics a while ago but the posting was lost during the server switch.

I will tell you that pics don't do it justice at all. This think is sick.









The brass on the black with brushed aluminum is perfect. It's very hard to see in the pics but every rivet and tiny screw is brass too. And that gauge cluster is a work of art.

Default Mufflers?

What are the specs on the mufflers? Are they sportsman? What size and type? Love the sound and would like to run something similar on my car.

Gui, Sorry I missed a few of these posts,,,

I believe that is where Chris's wife, Pamela, got the idea for the design. Here is a close up. It turned out awesome as did the rest of the car.

That roadster is incredible. My wife would be jealous with how much I love that car.
