        Black Buzzard does have a certain carrion like ring to it....
        Could put a big buzzard sticker on the hood like the Firebird.....
        Nahh.....

          I am challenged, and on the road right now and can't do it on this computer...
          Who could/can take this pic, and modify it to 'add' the letter "L" to change 'BACK' to 'BLACK"?????

            Jeff, Whatever name you pick, "different by design" should be on it somewhere.

                Remember the logo Elvis had on his plane--"taking care of business in a flash (TCB)" with the lightning bolt?...picture this: Flashblack in a lightning bolt--could be a flashy design...

                  Maybe if you could find an R-3 emblem and modify it to be R-53, or a decal made up with a circle with the S in it and R/53 on it. Either put on the fender 64 style, or on the wing tips.

                    I have two, 'BLACK GOLD' or my all time favorite, 'GOOD VIBRATIONS'.
                    Do you have a thread with more pics of the black car... not that I ever get tired of looking at the yellow one but, I have only seen a couple shots of the black car.

                            Thanks to Matthew Burnette (for the stainless trim) , the Lexan windscreen is properly installed.

                            Took some trimming of the vertical bars and the top bar....

                            Used two of the top corner pieces on the bottom to keep things trim.
                            Still need to make a central brace for the Lexan, and to sandblast and paint the stainless steel a gloss black.
                            Everything took a while to fit, but it ended up very nice.....

                                Y'all would have laughed your butts off watching me put the rubber on the Lexan, and putting the stainless in the rubber....
