Sorry about that.  My mistake.  It messed up my computer also.

This is what I sent, this time I hope it goes through.

  Paul, you sent 10.5 megabytes of incomprehensible photos and tied up my 
  computer for hours. I am afraid I must leave.

  Speaking of doing weird stuff with tubing and Ford GT's.

  This is what Kirkham Motorsports does with tubing, copper and Ford GT parts. 
  When they were ready to install the engine in the front it wouldn't fit. 
  The used the rear/ mid engine concept of the Ford GT and put the 
  engine/trans in the proper space.
  The body is made out of hand hammered copper and then at least 500 hours to 
  polish it to the shine in the photos.

  They actually built the car for SEMA.

  I am right there with ya on the $$.


  Funny thing was, the guy was laughing and saying that he had about a half 
  mile of tubing in the shop, and they were gonna have to build something with 
  it and use the parts from the GT to power it. Too much $$ and obviously 
  short on driving ability.

  Here's a couple I shot with my Rebel XT. A little different angle. We passed 
  the one that's in one piece on the track, and I watched it disappear in the 
  rear view mirror. (He couldn't keep up) What a rush!

  All the pictures from that day are here:

   I think about that 
  joyous ride every time I see a GT.

  We stopped at the BestBuy in AF Saturday and this rumbled into the parking

  wide-angle lens and got up close.

  Enjoy
