  Viper,yes possibly.

[jre58591]

it looks like one of those shelby cobras to me.

[alwaystheangel]

well Jre and donjuan have it right, it's a 427 Shelby Cobra replica and yes those are the rockies.
Don't ask me anything about all I know is we used a 1991 mustang as the donor car, the side pipes don't bother you when you drive (other than they are very, very, loud, we measured it and got it up to 122 decibels, I believe a jet plane is 140) The exhust doesn't come up because you'r driving and it blows away, however, the car is not built for comfort by any stretch, it is extremely windy and loud, we have to wear earplugs if we go on the highway and bundle up really good, and though there is a heater, it doesn't do much good at 80 miles an hour.

The side pipes will give a very nasty burn, it can cause 3rd degree burns and melt the material into your skin,  I've seen pictures, not a pretty sight.

Sure raises heads though, thundering around in the thing.

The silver things in the back are roll bars so if  the thing flips we won't get crushed, in theory, anyway.  Traditionally, there is only one on the driver's side but because Daddy loves us, he put in a second one.

I don't see any wrench.

I haven't a clue why there's not grill on the car, I think that's how they are traditionally built.

That about exhausts my knowledge, if you have more questions, I'll ask my father though, he'd be happy to oblige, he's currently helping several other people in the area build one too.

Oh yeah, it took him a year to take apart and clean the donor and about 6 months to build it and then a long time to get the pros to paint and adjust everything.  He's still teaking things here and there all the time.

[elspeth]

I was going through my archive for other purposes and couldn't resist letting some of these guys out, considering I've talked about them elsewhere on the forum!

[pianistimo]

amazing you get so close!  elspeth, you are a really good photographer.  you don't work for national geographic do you?

[elspeth]

Oh, if only!

[Waldszenen]

National Geographic are bitches when it comes to photography... each photo needs to have a specific number of lumens (?) of lighting, ISO, exposure time, colour saturation, dimensions blablabla...


Those polar bears are cute... just wanna give em a big cuddle (and then the ingrates tear you in half).

[alwaystheangel]

my mother lived in Churchill Manitoba, the polar bear capital of the world and this boy was walking between houses, stepd on a bear sleeping in the snow and had half of his face removed, he was lucky to survive.
Come to think of it, my mother was almost eaten by a wolverine there too.  Not a nice place.  Ah well, the wolverine is now a very very nice stole.

[Waldszenen]

The lying-down polar bear looks like he has a tummy ache, poor thing.

Wolverines are vicious creatures... I loved Churchill, the people were lovely and the local fauna did nothing but pose for me - I must've been lucky! I'm hoping to go back in the next year or two.

[henrah]

He's certainly better then me!


lol just kidding around kid, you're great, I love ya

[ihatepop]

I keep on catching my kitty in my alto sax case, (he couldn't fit into my soprano and he's afraid of my baritone)  I think it's kind of cute.

Wow...cute kitty, but it looks a bit scary with those shining eyes.(no offense)

ihatepop

[alwaystheangel]

None taken. It's very relective of my cat, her looks psychotic and he is psychotic

[henrah]

My cat craped whilst he was sleeping and didn't realise that he was sleeping in his own crap... I think he's done it again this morning, but it might just be mud on his fur.

Nappys for senile cats possibly?

[wishful thinker]

Have you got a gun?  If so you can shoot it.  Otherwise stick it in a shoe box and run over it.  Or chuck it out the window of a very tall building.

There are lots of ways of solving this problem 

[pianolist]

For most people, it's easy to tell the difference between cat crap, mud and refrigerated leftovers, but you should chuck them all out when they get furry.

But seriously, Henrah, when I was in my twenties, I made friends with a couple in their eighties, and, because I was young and unaware, I was amazed at the love between them. Caring for someone as they get older and more infirm can be very fulfilling, and you clearly love your cat, so the same will be true. I had eight cats whom I looked after into their old age, and there were some very wonderful moments with all of them.

Wishful Thinker has cats too, because he mentioned them in one of his posts. I bet Mrs Thinker doesn't let him shoot at them.

[wishful thinker]

You are a wise and perceptive man, oh bearded one 

Henrah, it was a joke.  I have lots of animals    And we know how much you like pussy

Reminds me of how Mrs. Slocom used to refer to her cat.

This is me on piano street with my injured ring fingure. That's going to take a big chunk out of my piano practise

[imbetter]

Well, if you didn't know, my real name isn't lau. I have only revealed it once here in the pianostreet forums

His name is tyson

[pianistimo]

this is ivana and myself on her fifth birthday.  not sure how to enlarge.  hmm.  well, anyways.  that's a more recent pic.  from september at least.  this is my flamengo pink dining room.  do you like the color?

so there. i finally did it!  i figured out how.

everyone - enjoy your holidays!  we don't have cold enough weather yet for fireplaces here.  it was 60 degrees or so again today.  balmy weather for philly.  the grass is still green!  susan

btw, the right side of my hair is not shorter than the left - it was just 'folded under' or something. 

[chopinetta]

That's me (I'm in red). I volunteered to help at a children's Christmas party outdoors.

you kinda have to have a photo that has some contrast, sharpness etc. It's easy for digital photography though, since you just have to adjust some stuff in photoshop.

Kudos to the bear pic! So cuuuuute!  The only cuddly animal that i took a picture of was a... caged bunny. lol

[lichristine]

Oh look, it's me. Well, me a year or two ago.

A year ago maybe? I adore goats.....

1:30 AM. Unfamiliar parking lot. We were "pirates for a night." HE STOLE MY SWORD; I HAD TO FIGHT WITH A FLOWER. I am on the left.

Very old, but I like my legs. I am on the left.

One of my favorite pictures EVER. It's only Sharpie though....(for now)

Church practice! I'm oggling the guitar player. (He's married.... )

Oldish again. I have a basket on my head.

The greyish blob in the left corner is my darling. Vermillion, the amazing pet tarantula.

Wait that's not a piano. Oh look it's John! Hi John!


My Free Time In Health Class





wow that's more than I'd originally intended. Sorry!

[pianistimo]

?  where's the pic lichristine?

[ahinton]

where's the lightswitch?  we don't have one.  it doesn't exist.  susan

Who's "we" here? "We"'ve not seen the light after all, then; no lightswitch, no light, presumably...

Never mind...

Best,

Alistair

clicky clicky on the titles!

Expand your mind beyond the constricting box of society... beyond the poisonous thoughts which have been injected into your brain from birth. Look into the infinite.

[pianistimo]

that is merely a view looking out of a honeycomb.  in morning light.  as a queen bee would - after having excised the drones. 

[annoying_airhead]

How can you be so sure though?  =)

Wow this looks very poetic to me, whatever it may be. Some erotic associations might appear.

gateway to heaven, huh?

Not a good photo of you.

Whoever did it failed to include your halo

Tis a little thing I made a couple years back. A wormhole into the furthest reaches of space and time... the infinity of consciousness. Posting of the animated version is a possibility....

and cziffra... have you graduated 8th grade yet? Smoking weed isn't cool anymore mang. You need to move on to meth and cocaine. Sprinkle some vicodin over that thing or something. Get with it.

[cziffra]

You would say that

[alwaystheangel]

I threw my friend's stash out of the car window onto a highway.. Needless to say she was not i mpressed, but she stopped somking weed, so I guess it worked. 
Pot smells gross.  Better than cigarettes, but still...ew.

[xire]

Same kinda picture as I posted a few months ago... Didn't change much. 

[berrt]

this is ivana and myself on her fifth birthday.

cute... both of you 

Berrt

[pianowolfi]

This is what i am doing often these days: listen to beautiful music.

[pianistimo]

good thing you explained that.  i thought you were a pilot, too.

[pianowolfi]

Yeah, Pianistimo, that is not so wrong. Because when I listen to beautiful music I feel at least like flying. But without a plane of course!

[thalbergmad]

He looks like something out of Thunderbirds.
