Okay Everyone, the rain stopped and I got some shots of the PT. As you can see, the paint's not perfect, but who cares, right? It runs like a scalded cat and I like it. I'm going to tune it up in a few days (had to order the damn plugs) and clean the throttle body. I'm hoping to squeeze a little more mpg out of it with the tune up, but who knows? Anyway, go to the photo gallery and have a look and make your comments. I didn't post a pic of the valve stem caps, but they're chrome skulls. Bad ***, huh?

 

Very nice, Charlie! I like the imperial blue!

 

Thanks Billy. I figured you'd be the first to comment on it. I HOPE to make enough off the pretzel business so I can get a paint job on it next year.

 

I want a pretzel!

 

You'll have to wait on the pretzel, Billy. We launch the business around the 20th of August or so. I don't have an exact date from corporate yet. What flavor do you want, plain, lightly salted, blueberry or cinnamon/sugar?

 

Oh, man! Cinnamon and sugar! My favorite, although I've not tried a pretzel in this flavor...

The PT looks pretty good too! The Imperial Blue is a nice color... Given that the speedo goes to 140, I read that it's a factory HO model... That means I will have a hard time getting around it, unless I can leverage my much higher rev limit to an advantage...

 

YOURE MISSING OUT!
Go to the mall, go to antie annes, and get one.
Right now. Go. Stop typing. Great chit.

 

You realize the nearest mall is over 60 miles distant? I'll save it for the next time I'm up there...

 

You have a redline. You can do that in 20 min

 

No, right now, I have a 4.0L Ford Ranger which has the factory speed governor set at 107mph... And it's only got maybe 140whp... And it weighs around 3300#... And it has lots of ground clearance, for a 2wd truck...

My redline is still down, regardless whether or not my alternator has shipped out...
