I've been promising video, so here.

Dial-up should not even try.

Finished?? Thats it?? I thought doing a six conversion was difficult. Hell, I didn't even break a sweat. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/happy11.gif)

On a serious note - Joe, the car looks awesome and I can't wait to drive it. If my wife wouldn't kill me, I would be on my way up there right now.

For the record, Joe did a lot more than just simply install parts. He sourced a lot of the parts himself and/or gave me the info I needed to get parts ordered. There is no way the car would have turned out as nice in such a short amount of time without his extra help and guidance. He was a huge resource beyond just doing the conversion.

Also, huge props to Eric Shea for the wheels and Johnman for getting the three-way gauge turned around so quickly.

On that note, it's (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) time!

As soon as I confirm first hand that the car isn't slow, new plates will be ordered.

I think I am going to take the plate that SirAndy suggested:

No offense to Andy, but we had a vote and all agree that Boxster anything on your plate is not cool.

You can do better.

It's kinda like pretending to be something you're not, in order to impress people who don't care.
