Yes, Excellent looking bird.  Interesting headlights too.  Special ones I guess as they look like Halo lights.  I'd like to know also where you get such unique bulbs.

Go Fast the first time.  The tickets the same.

Wow, that's a great looking bird!  I love the old school stance and wheel/tire combo.  Good to see another IN guy as well.
