    Pretty sure there would be a good 20 or so Jalops, chasing down Wert, in hopes of finding the truth.


    Why don't we have an edit button?


    And, why don't we know what he drove to reunion?


    These questions must be appeased, or we hunt him down, motorized chariot style.

    These are so wrong in so many ways, I need one. Now. Never, ever, ever, show stuff like this to a guy with a shop full of fabricating equipment and a bunch of race engines laying around.. Clint and I are seriously drawing up plans... It was nice talking to you guys, we may not survive this particular project, but, rest assured, our survivors will send in tape....

    @Mad_Science: Must be possible, you can buy a complete car for $ 500, so only a drivetrain must be less.

    Do I understand how to steer it? nope.


    Do I understand the purpose? nope.


    Is all I want to do, is get one, find a friend and shoot some arrows out the back, like in Gladiator. That will show the guy in the black Chevy Avalanche who cut me off on my commute yesterday. I'll put an arrow through your windshield, Asshole! Although, perhaps a bigger engine would be in order.

    Nice but the chariots need a little design work on them.


    No self respecting Italian is going to want to purchase one of these babies.

    i am a working stiff (Lights/sound/carpentry for theatre) and a technogeek and im highly considering getting this car once i move out of NYC later this year. carpentry tools, theatre lights, and speakers are not small and light by any means. and that glove compartment would fit (ha!) a mac mini nicely.

    @Thomas West: You're an NYC working stiff. Once you spend some time out in "Real America," you'll start hankerin' for a pickup. Just you wait n' see.
