Thank you for the welcome Xist.

>>At some point, when you take a picture of the front, could you take it from standing height--if, you know, you are not already.
----The interesting angle of the windshield makes the photos look a bit off. The photo directly above your posting is at standing height, no zoom, etc.. This is by all accounts a "recumbent car". In an earlier photo posted, you can see how the roof only comes up to the Accent's side mirror. The interior rear view mirror on the Centurion is mounted on the dash since it was essentially worthless on the windshield mount.

>>>Does engine air flow around the bumper?
-----The air intake for cooling enters directly below the bumper. The area is about 2-3 inches high and roughly 1.5 - 2 ft wide. That incoming air is then ducted into the radiator. An electric fan takes care of in-town cooling.
