So my car won't be that light, but it does give me a few ideas.

What are your plans for the final finish on your car? It would be cool if you metalized it, and shoot clear over that.. blinding.

It wouldn't weigh anymore than a paintjob.

i got it- hes gonna lose 50 more pounds by going with three wheels!

When I'm done with it, I'd like to strip it down and acid dip it like Brad did, but thats too much work. Since it will probably never be finished, I better keep using raddle cans.

The top picture is the lightweight version. The driver's not wearing shoes.

My kind of thinking.

Don't forget to trim your toenails, and shave your feet.

50+ lbs where removed form the acid dip tub.. sound deadening that I couldnt see and foam spray in the corners..


Its not a bad thing.

wouldnt the acid eat fiberglass? isnt that what ury's car is mostly made out of?

Posted by: redshift Sep 1 2003, 11:32 AM

No, and no, it won't eat the glass, and his car is mostly made of space.

God! I love poking fun at (what there is left of) that car!

I am currently working on a stainless steel snowboard that the designer hopes to market to Porsche.

You got it, Brad.

i s'pose ya never know - but it seems t'me like Porsche exports designs and specifically contracts for anything else. now if it were titanium, you might have something. (i might even be in the market, and i've never been on a snowboard in my life. but i'm something of a nut for titanium stuff (he said while wearing his titanium MoMo watch, titanium Macy's bracelet, and Titanium Era wedding ring ...))
