Sadly, there was a minor earthquake in Massilon and his entire EMPI collection fell on the car and crushed it. What a tragedy.   Cheesy

Can't wait to get mine!  Really looking forward to the split feature... when I first saw the car (and I think it was here on the Lounge) I wasn't crazy about the color, but loved the rest of it.  The color truly grew on me the more I checked out the pics, and I know there's a great story behind it.

I wonder how many hard launches it would take to tear the four dowels out of that soft aluminum. Super neat, though.

One of us should buy the other schiefer on samba, eight-dowel it, bolt it to a healthy (but not huge) engine and see how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop.
