    Ok,Daves analogy is much better than mine was...............
    Are you dedicated or committed.. .good stuff!!!!!
    My take was not soo much what they built,but the fact that they were building instead of destroying,you never know this may of been the mock up and the ride is gunna get blown apart ,painted and look perfect or they may drive it like this forever .....who knows.
    But I do know they were not getting into trouble or getting anyone else in trouble which seems to be what most are doing nowadays.
    Maybe 20 kids went down that sidewalk that night and saw something that got them started in the field of cars from that build...........maybe 20 people stopped and talked to them and found out not all traditional rodders are rude beligerant whisky drinkers.
    Anyway heres part 2 of the saga.........

    All true, and on the road trip from Vegas to Washington perhaps a thousand or two saw it and thought what a ridiculous contraption, dang fool hot rods shouldn't be allowed on the road!!!!
