Try a vinegar solution. Work fast, it may eat the paint a little. ;)

I think "fart" is a swear word unless preceded by the modifier "old", in which case it's not a swear word, it's just sad . . . really sad.

Those are racing stripes, not pinstripes.

Pinstripes are usually no more than 1/4" wide.

My estimate is 75 HP added through the use of stripes. :rolleyes:

Re: OT- High Performance Exotic Vehicle

My mom had an Electrolux. They suck. :D :D :D

Those are about the best (and seemingly least known) vacuums in the universe. Hope you enjoy your new "ride".

I think he's using a 55-gallon drum for a fuel tank.

I bet the engine alone is worth more than $4K.
