      I found a car I started and messed up a few times and decided to turn it from a racer to a street rod.

      It started life as a clone S2000.

      Then it got slot lowered.

      Chopped the top and added aluminum tail pipes and a wing as well as the normal air dam and side skirts.

      Added a few pipes out the hood for the engine (I thought it would look cool even though I can’t remember what they are called.)

      Because of the pipes in the hood I had to put in a spring suspension because I had to remove the bar and hack into the cover of the steering.

      Here’s a shot with the flash turned off.

      Yes I even painted the PCB cover the same color.

      And here is my little helper, when she was a few months younger. She hops in my lap when soldering and tests the hold of the glue joints by batting the bodies off the table. There is a reason I call her Miss Patches Underfoot.

      Now can the little Hobbit finish the third Bit Pimps entry in time.

      nice bodywork on the wing mount :smiley16:

      all it needs now is some giant wheels inside the guards..

      I might have to add some of those tailpipes to my R34.. :beer:
