No! This is just another crack smoken newbie that thinks he has something special. The last picture shows how twisted the front end is because the drivers fender is higher then the passengers fender. OUCH!!!

"Damaged front end all fixed now".

You could put your eye out on the turn signal switch.. :roll:
And, I am with you on the color combo, I hate two tone. :-&

No I have never heard of the movie, but here is the scoop on it. :lol:

Quote: Storyline

Virgil First Raise wakes with a shiner and a hangover in a roadside ditch on the stark but beautiful plains of Montana. As he rises to face the day he sees a vision of his father lying dead at his feet. Impossible-- his father froze to death in a snowdrift years earlier. Virgil returns home to find that his wife, Agnes, has left him. Worse, she's taken his electric razor and his beloved rifle. Virgil sets out to find her-- beginning a hi-line odyssey of inebriated encounters, sexual skirmishes, and improbable cloak-and-dagger intrigues with the mysterious 'Airplane Man'. Virgil's quest also brings him face-to-face with childhood memories and visions of his beloved, lost brother Mose-- some glorious, some tragic. Only when Virgil seeks the counsel of an old, blind man named Yellow Calf, does he grasp the truth of his origins and begin to thaw the ice in his veins.

Two tone looks horrible on bugs unless it's a split convertible or a hebmuller.

I think you need a special cam to use the intake ports for the exhaust.

It's only dirty because of where he stored it.....in the dirt?
Glad he cleared that up, I thought it was dirty because he's too lazy to wipe it off before taking a picture of it.

Chromies = nightmare? Not sure I follow that... I don't think the rims look that bad on the car (better than the run of the mill/everybodys-got-em BRMs, IMO). But I absolutely would not pay $3800 for that car, nonetheless. lol.
