it was great meeting you and your son.
to be honest, his rig has so many innovations, it's hard to appreciate it unless it's viewed in person.
here's the opposite of the one Earl posted, from the cockpit:
i finished the grille after i got home. looks good enough. the clear resin was the way to go but expensive and i have to drive 30 miles to get it.

I guess it wouldn't be 'DarkAero' [sp?] anymore. Maybe some gloss/satin/metallic two-toning in black? |

...and just like that, a new receiver hitch fer my trailer jack point!
I figure I'll need about a 2" tube that is about 16" long with the pin hole about 4" from the one end. Time to run to the metal supply store.
Now that the receiver hitch is installed, I'll be able to build various things that I can then pin into the receiver hitch. Maybe an additional boat tail fer Dark Aero?
The chain holes are perfect to slide my lock bar through, too!
