I wasn't challenging how you went about building your vehicle. I wss simply saying I would not challenge you to a straight line acceleration contest while making fun of those who do. My RuPaul like reference was clumsy. Sometimes I don't multitask well. It.s nor like eating driving and ogling a girl at the same time

My plan A was to mod an SSB or BSM N/A with cedar interior and manual to SRT power levels. Couldn't see a way clear to make our box strong enough or get a modded MB engine to work with a non MB gearbox for daily street driving. The better half wanted a slushbox and thought a modded car would not be suitable in a regular driver role.

Am not crazy about the perma wing either but given the rarity of the car I am not eager to make irreversible changes to mine. Not that I feel like the car's curator or caretaker for the next owner or anything. Just focusing my mods on giving it a more complete look and feel whilst keeping it suitable for my daily commute.
