@parramore64: Yes! There are other Darda fans at the Jalop!

This guy obviously took the lessons from Toy Story to heart. I'd do the same for the same reason, but also to hear the music from those sidepipes.

@Maxichamp: Indeed. And if only our federal government were half as thrifty as our dear Murilee.

Awesome. The only thing that could be done to improve this post is some audio of this thing running.

Wow; that would've been really boring if I weren't such a geek.

Yeah; I remember my Duster. It was my second car. While it wasn't exactly "totally original," it was unique with its three-tone paint job; dark green body, light green front-left fender, white passenger door.

@Bumblebee: Zing! ba-da-BUMP!

I couldn't decide between them, so I picked both.

@Tylinol: Built in lumbar support... Don't know why, but that made me laugh!

@Charles_Barrett - Now with Variable-Valve Timing: Yep; noticed that too. Nice Photoshop skilz demonstration. Didn't leave a single clue for us, did he.

Congrats; cool project. You beat my recently acquired personal PCH — a beater BMW 528 — all to heck.

Great post, but needs more engine pron.
