Thanks for the comments.

Funny how time affects things. As I work on the Renault and the Mini, driving the Vair, it is easy to forget the trials and tribulations of the time. It seems like the current projects are more challenging than the Vair. Some of this is because with the Vair you can order most of what you need from very responsible vendors, albeit many miles and months away, but they get here and most of the time fit. My Renault is French, and has various differences with the US version and others with the Argentine version. Fortunately we have some good machinists.

I dunno... they look so much alike. How can we be sure that the person in the Caveman Corvair isn't just Robert Wesley Jennings with a hairpiece and a Col. Sanders fake beard???Image :rolling: :think:

When it comes to photoshop, I prefer this one that my son did one day when I sent him a picture of our 21,000 ft mountain, taken in the airport in La Paz.

A few minutes later he sent back the same picture with my car at the airport.

Omg you guys are hilarious :rolling: This was a tough month to make a decision :eek: but ya'll have made a good case for why Richard is probably going to win . The look of his car along with the storyline and awesome pics of it in that beautiful place and his nice looking family are a winning combination :not worthy: I hope to see the other cars reentered in the future . They are all very cool looking Corvairs that deserve to win :clap:
