So my car won't be that light, but it does give me a few ideas. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif)

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.

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.

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 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 ...))
