I haven't been on the forums much lately... been busy with work and travel and building my car.

But now it is almost done, save for a ton of fiddly bits like antennas and hoses and tubes and dishes...

There it is... bear in mind that I still have the tubes and a bunch of gadgets to put on the roof!

I love having free doors like that...

Close-up of rack... speakers for siren and stereo.

Paid some high schoolers to clean and detail the interior of my car... everything is now a shiny black... slicker than a lizard in Jerry Lewis's hair. Black and red 12-gauge cables run twirling over my dash and into the front fender from my door...

Control box and cd player for outer sound... switches are reated for high amperage. Going to add rocker safety switches just for kicks...

One of the two side tubes I'll be mounting with magnets this week.

I was asked to use the car to escort about 250 drift racers to their next meet in Denver....

LMAO!! That's Great!! Talk about throwback to the 80's. Tell me you got the dinky "dying battery" siren.

The only thing you are missing is a bumper sticker that reads
"My other car was stolen by that bitch Lindsey Lohan"

Everything on the car is removable. Takes about 12 minutes to set up.

Lights and siren work, as well as speakers for whatever music we want to pump out of it.

Driving downtown at night on Fridays and Saturdays, people climb into it and we carry them around the block. We run the lights when we see a street racer, scares the shit out of them....

Your reactions are funny, and quite typical. Most guys are afraid to admit how cool it is, and instead think it is dumb.

But every female that sees this car.... I kid you not.... screams with glee "Oh my god it's the GHOSTBUSTERS!"

So far I've hit 70mph SAFELY with nothing coming off.

I have never seen a cop do the little "surfer" thing with his hand until I made this car.

That right there is the perfect example of the reactions we get.

People leaning out of cars to high-five us

People fumbling with their camera phones

Little kids with mouths agape, not knowing what it is but loving it

Old people asking what business we're in.

This is where the UK and the US are completely different. You drive around that in a council estate for 1 minute and I swear your next stop would be the hospital!

Yeah, I should have.

Tell you what, when you find me a 1959 Miller Meteor Cadillac in good enough condition that a guy my age earning what I earn can afford to restore and customize in less than two months, then I'll do it!

Are you up for the challenge? I like the way you think, now we're all counting on you!

Don't you mean turn your back for one minute and it would be nicked.

Hardly beaten up for that type of thing we don't live in "the ghetto!"
