        Looks good Allen. How about some engine pics? If you ever get tired of looking at that factory tachometer, I would be happy to put it into my Hawk. [8D]

            From here it looks like an abandoned satellite dish tied to the door handles to keep the rain out of the interior because the car is missing its big back window.

            Can I win something fun if I'm right? []

                  Your are right. I was in the satellite TV sales for 25 years. I have several of those dishes. Your can have one as a prize if you pick it up.

                    Chris,
                    Every thing is bigger in Texas. But, our paper plates aren't that big.

                        Lots to do under the hood. As I mentioned, starting on brakes, Anyone every see a worse looking master cylinder? And what is this piece of rubber belting attached under the drivers floor for? It is about 8" wide.

                            Wait until you see the front calipers and rear wheel cylinders, they will be a budget buster.

                              No such thing as a budget-buster on an R2 GT[:X] Worth whatever it takes. Good for you, Allen!
