    Wow, that is way kewl, actually it's beyond way kewl! Definitely time for a tune up and a trip to Bonneville! I know what you mean on the old flatty, I did one a few decades back for a roadster, never have spent so damn much money on an engine and got so little horsepower for the investment! I'm not sure the car would be "right" with anything but a flatty for power, though! I suppose one could look around for one of the Lincoln Flatty's and maybe watch the ads for a Scot's blower and.............

    I'm thinking a big clock key mounted on the back (billet aluminum from Dave K.) of the car is what it needs for your next monthly cruise in

    We did that to a daily driver many years ago.
    Made a couple of brackets out of scrap I had lying around, mounted an electric windscreen wiper motor to it, attached it all to the inside of the trunk lid, which I'd cut a hole through, attached a plywood and aluminium key to it, wired it into the electrics, so when the ignition was on the key rotated.

    Got a lot of funny looks.

    That's a "bug" thing. This critter is too cool for school.

    Education is expensive. Keep that in mind, and you'll never be terribly upset when a project goes awry.

    That’s really cool! Don’t think I’ve ever seen one like that.
