    I wonder how much time was spent in the planning stages of this project ?? You know open spaces for brackets just don't happen without a lot of thought. The attention to detail in the doors and craftsmanship that goes into the brackets never ceases to amaze me along with the design of the front end operation.

    I'm just disappointed not to see Mrs Binky's raised eyebrows again - they were rather lovely....

    Great Engineering

    The hinge on the hood that allows the entire hood to be removed from the car in seconds is a great, simple piece of engineering. The time in making the many, many little brackets, gussets, braces, etc., always amazes me. Everything is so well done.

    And, their English humor is always enjoyable.

    Hopefully, Bad Obsession Motorsports is already considering their next project so we can continue to be educated and entertained after Proect Binky in completed.

    I doubt this one will be done for another year or so, still plenty to watch!

    I think Ima start a poll on what color they'll paint it.....:Thumbsup:

    Wow. I musta felt it in my bones when I posted this morning. A couple of months ago I signed up as a sponsor of the videos. And just 10 minutes ago I got an email saying Episode 9 has just been published on YouTube. It's a long one - over 25 minutes. I am only 5 minutes in and there are already several cute babes in it! :biggrin5:

    Hold on. I'll start a new thread.
