So, Marty, are those driving or fog lights?
Got me? I gotta look at the PO. Edit... They are 670/680 clear bulb.
Hey Marty, I recommend stocking up on some Griot's Speed Shine and nice microfiber towels. You're going to have to wipe the drool off your car quite often at Carlisle, I can promise you that. I may be the biggest culprit.
Thanks Lane I'll bring lots of Speed Shine! I use it on the Boxster great stuff.

No comment on the baby picture, but your ride is looking pretty good.

Is it too late to chose a nicer color Marty? I mean, these cream colored roadsters get boring before long.
A nice dark red/maroon maybe, or my favorite, seal gray?
If you have them paint it another color but still think you prefer the cream I've got a nice cream colored IM roadster to trade....

Ken, its too late for that:-0 BTW your car is Ivory and the lighter colors are hard to see in photos. There is a quite a bit of diference in the two colors. Go to the local Porsche Dealer and take a peak at the the new 911 in Carrera Cream.
Changed my mind. Erased my post.
Marty--personally I thing the color you chose is sensational.
I was yanking your chain, Marty. I kinda' thought it might be obvious that I like the cream colored cars.
the body gaps on they car are perfect. flawless. beautiful. If you werent such a good person id not like you very much. Jealousy can get the better of me. Its a character flaw. Can not wait to see it at Carlisle this year. Ill race you?!
No more yankee my wankee, the Donger need food!
Henry sent me pics of the reworked Kennedy headers.

I just noticed that Henry put my reverse lights on the top gill of the Carerra deck lid. I have the Spyder shine down light over the rear plate. I have stared at the picture before and never noticed it (pretty cool).

that is awesome!!
That is so cool, I would love to see this car some day. I love everything you have picked!
Jim, think about the Rosie's diner thing. That will be great to have your car there, a good mix of colors too for the photo op that will last a lifetime.

Marty:
With the Spyder licence plate light, Henry has to install the backup lights in the louvers. There is really no other place to put them, unless you have 'real' backup lights on the rear bumper.
I'm having the same on my IM.

Nice Robert, I heard your car really halls a_ _!
As long as it hauls mine, that's all that matters...
Hopefully it'll haul it to Carlisle in May. You haven't been there in several years.
nice touch with the back up LED in the louvre. Marty looks like you and Henry put alot of thought into your build. I particularly like the color coordinated mirrors and driving lamps. Looks "racy" See in in Carlisle I'm sure.
Thanks Howie! Is it too early yo start the Carlisle anti-rain dance?
Lane:
If I can arrange things with the car, I would certainly like to be at Carlisle this year. It's a fun event.

Marty, I'm Robert, and my car has just been painted, and should be re-assembled in a week or so with delivery this Spring.

Lets see some pics you tease.
I should have some decent ones in a day or two.
Just got off the phone with Henry. He was very very happy with the test drive. He only drove it around the shop area but said the engine is smooth.
Remember Marty, I got dibs.
