I have never tried this but if it works I thought some of you might like a look at my V6 driver. I only have a couple of hundred miles on it right now but it feels like I can drive it every day in comfort. For the time being I have parked my Pontiac and my Silverado.

Robin,
I toured the shopping malls with my camera and brought back pictures of a Mustang and a Jag to my painter. He said "I can do that" and he did.

Hi Larry,

You can leave your other rides in the garage, because your Alpine is as dependable as any Toyota, just a whole lot more fun than a Toyota. I loved the rear view shot, where the exhaust steam is coming out of the tail pipes. I swear that I could hear the exhaust burbling. WOW!! I'll bet you will be using it a lot more then either of your other cars.

Jose :D

Nice Job

Larry,
This is a sweet ride. I really liked what you have done on the interior. Were those Alpine seats with custom upholstery?

The very last picture was a round thing looking handle. I couldn't figure out what that was.

Do you have pics of the engine?

Every chance I get and yeah, I got lucky with the exhaust shot. I also don't live in any of these places. I just thought the pictures would be nice.

Tom,
The arm rest really only work for pulling the door closed. I think the passenger might be able to rest his arm there but there isn't much space to rest your arm and drive on the driver side.
The Barbecue is good. I used to take my oldest son there after he played a little league game and buy him an ice cream cone. He is 40 now and the same family runs the place.

Rob,
The seats are Alpine seats with leather upholstery. The color and pattern of the car and the interior are copied from a 2008 Corvette. I got the color code from the Chevy dealer.
The Round thing in the last picture is one of the speakers for the Sony stereo system.
Here is a link to some pictures of the engine. They aren't real good and I will be posting more when I have better ones.

1-Like everyone has already said, the car is great.
2-Looking at the slide show I have to say I like the stock wheels and hubcaps. Based on your reports on the performance, it looks like a real sleeper.

Nice car...
