    Just found this on another site “When Street Was Neat”. Centered around the ‘70’s just after the formation of the NSRA. 4E0BA293-9B93-48AE-867B-B3CEE2D16458.jpeg

    I attended a car show a number of years ago, and while there, some guy pulled into the lot in a street-ified rail job with a blown engine and zoomies that was just wicked. Everyone o-o-ohed and a-a-awed over the thing, but I never did get to talk to the guy to learn more about it. They are definite attention getters!

    (This is not it, but similar.)

    I think Bruce may be right. Get Ron Pope to get creative and make a tank for you that will fit in whatever space you have. :rolleyes:

    They also get better with Photoshop ! Just pick the size you like !!!
    You might have to make your browser window wider if the pics don't progressively get wider.
    With the bigger pics comes more distortion, so at some point they are less appealing ..... your decision!

    Changed the Brightness and Contrast, then ran a Sharpening filter on the last 2 pics and finally resized the image.

    1st pic - 800 x 421
    2nd pic - 1000 x 526
    3rd pic - 1200 x 631
