Be sure to start a new thread called "DJ's drunken rants" or something.

You know I'm down to jump out of some airplanes! Let's just make sure they're civvy chutes though, cuz my knees can't handle another T10D landing.
As for "when" - be sure you're tellin' em all I will be there from the 13th-18th (I think those are the dates) then off to Greece, then Madrid, then BACK to Dublin for an evening before my plane departs on the 31st.

Well a level car and a straight 2x4 with a level would give better intel, but from looking at everyones cars, six flags and my own, it seems that it's more of a problem with the scoop drooping on the driver side, and less to do with the wings. Hey, Alfred had a LOT on his mind, what with finding out he had a niece, getting a disease, and building a new batmobile ever y couple of years!  Then Batman said the first one was too wide, so he cut it down. The gas caps he got from pals in London...I looked through my camera and got in close and then walked back, did a little left and right, and with the right angle you can make everything look straight or crooked. Until my car is mounted, any photos would just make things worse! Got a steering wheel though! I will post that on my thread today or tomorrow.

| The best way to photograph it is from as far away as possible. A good zoom comes in handy so you can get further away and still fill the frame. For these shots however, it doesn't really matter. All that matters is that you're centered left to right. Then the left fin should be level with the right and that should be parallel with the roofline. You're right that it may be the roof that is off instead of the fins. Can't determine that from the photos...

Nate you are so correct. That's what I said 3 months ago when I was attacked in a dark ally and nearly beat to death by all of you non believers. Just to stir up some old crap it was when I was trying to show that Mark had not fixed the problems with the car before molding it. Like I said back then too each builder can fix the problems but if someone is going to go through making molds then why not just fix the body first?

| Nope I wouldn't change a thing on any of them. That way people can say "when you've seen one, you've seen the all." But if I were trying to make "The Best Kit" then yes I would say fix "all" the problems before dumping a boat load of money into the molds.
But for me since I have no plans to ever build a second one I would say leave them as is.
