Can't believe it was Jan of '16 since the post about the Touring! It's STILL not complete, but will be going under the knife in the next couple of weeks. Bugster is still tucked away in the shop,...

I had used Facebook as the picture host, and apparently they don't want to be a picture host, so while the pictures still exist in my Facebook account, the links are different so I'll need to go...

I bought the online version. The interior is amazing, but it's clearly a street car that won't see much track time, like the Bugster (www.bugster.at), and I really wonder what the thought process...

Little update:
Got these aluminum mufflers, yes, I said aluminum. Got a buddy that builds big HP cars and he swears by them, very, very light, no cracks yet for him. I'm doubtful, but they...

I can't see a difference, although apparently there is one. Keep in mind I have fiberglass fenders, so it's really easy to modify the opening too. I believe the difference is less than 3/4"' and I...

Big day, I finally came up with a structural solution that is also elegant in its design. It ties the inner and outer Boxster chassis, the new frame rails, and the roll cage together, all while...
