I was at the Oakland Roadster show when the car got Unveiled to Tim. That was one of the first cars that really got me going. Steve Moal does amazing work with countless details.

I could see how this car could do that.

Very cool car. I had a chance to see it in person. The pictures don't do it justice.

$178,000 it should go for double or triple that. Take a step back and realize. Most of us take a car and modify it or move some metal around. This car started out as a few stixs of strait round bar and FLAT sheet metal. To make a car from scratch. Simply BAD A$$!!!!

I was also at the Oakland show that day, very cool build.

I remember thinking to myself even then, "Goodyear Eagle GTs"?? On THIS?

A new set of tires (wheels are fine) with better aesthetics, would definately help the looks of this awesome car.

If you look at the pictures, you'll notice that it has had a different set of wheels from the when it you first saw it in Oakland.

Perhaps the ones in the new pics are the 'driving around town wheels'.

That's exactly what I meant to say...They have changed out the wheels, but for some reason have not picked a better looking tire.

If I recall, Hoosier makes a DOT street tire with a dirt track style tread, which would really look great on that car...
