You know Jeremy, I was just thinking about the mod list for this one. You're not going to enter it in the COTM contest are you?

Technically, I can't till 2013. I'm sure you'll recover by then

Previous owner made them.

They're just brushed aluminum sills with vinyl decals on them.

it's more like his miss-adventures have made him famous!!!!

Wow ls1camino, you really are hopping to it! I hate pulling my tail lamp off to dry out the inside, and youve done that much in that little time??? Are you a bodyman by chance???

***SMWS6TA*** · 01-25-2012, 01:15 PM

Scott, I drilled 3-4 1/8" size holes on the bottom side of my tail lights and have not had any issues since with my tail lights. It got so bad that I was having to pour out water every weekend.

Think Frankenbird will be running at Capitol this year?

***SMWS6TA*** · 01-25-2012, 07:21 PM

Jeremy,

Is Frankenbird the office name of the car or will Nymph rise from the ashes?

I like MIR a lot more, but Capitol is the local track, and I'll probably go there for seat time, since they don't charge for N/T racing

It's all good, I just felt like teasing you.

That sounds good, but where exactly did you drill on the bottom side? My biggest problem is in the reverse lamp area (I know, shocker).
