The only question now is "How does it feel and drive compared to the real thing?"

Mental. I have permanently lost some of the sense of accomplishment I used to get when changing the front brakes on my Benz.

I like all the color under the hood. I notice that a lot of the cars Roman (Pumpish) does have multi-colored parts in them. Are those hard to find? I've never seen blue hoses anywhere that I can recall.

He should have left it in there. Like a ship in a bottle.

The last time I was at Johnhef's house I saw a Panterra go by. It's been a long time since I last saw one of those! It was in mint condition, too.

I was going to make a comment about that, but if you read the blurb, it seems to be the engine that is in the Ford GT, and it makes more hp than the original Countach. So to me, that means it will actually run, and then outrun a real Countach from the era

Yeah, the engine from a Ford GT. That's not too shabby. Far be it from ME to criticize it at any rate . . . .

Ought to be a bit more reliable even in modified form. Defintely easier, and cheaper, to source parts for.

IIRC, Ford uses/used blue radiator hoses that are made out of silicone as either standard equipment or an option for their Crown Vic police cars.

Wow, he is like the guy who built that perfect model Ferrari! I bet that car is built better and faster than the real thing!
