Interesting conversion, but engine cooling isn't evident, unless those are slots that can be seen on the flatbed? |

it looks like a well executed conversion and it would defeat the object to have cooling slots in the flat-bed. I wonder if they cut a channel in the rear luggage floor to allow air to flow up from under the car - like they did on the later wizard kit cars _________________ "we're here on Earth to fart around" kurt vonnegut

We are not amused!
Edit: This has been up for three days and I'm surprised nobody has commented. Did I hide the joke too well, or was it just too dumb? _________________ We are striving for perfection, to make our cars run forever, if possible.
