Some Observations

Tourigjm,
Yeah she noticed, the look is O.K. for her. But I could tell she was not thrilled.

Another note,
I drove the car to work last night, and I discovered.
drum-roll please
It's to D@MN close to the ground.
Barbs car was already pretty close to the ground, but this thing scrapes everywhere.
I either have to modify it or get a different idea werkin.
At first look it was the right size.
It hangs about an inch, give or take, below the front suspension.
Apparently it is far enough forward of the wheels that this is a bad spot. But I put it as far back as possible and it ends right in front of the wheels.
Oh well.
Tomorrow is another day.
S.
