P.S.   Looks like that new clean shed is quickly becoming used.

P.P.S.   There is no real reason to to have a PS on a computer where you can go back up to previous lines and add in additional text.

I like the idea of the pipes, however they are illegal if you are going to keep them for rego... has to be a cetain distance from the rear welded seam and not allowed to be on the pavement side of the street...

For mine i like the side look as wekk but am going to use a dummy set for rego...

Think the exhaust has to be 100mm past the last door opening......FC427......
As I lay rubber down the street I pray for traction I can keep, but if I spin and begin to slide please dear god protect my ride
