    Yep, you're a saint alright. Our waitress at 3Floyds (best beer on the planet, it's a death metal atmosphere filled with as many yuppies as death metallers), was wearing a shirt, kind of like a high school spirit shirt that said, "St. Lucifer Holy Goats". As sacrilegious as it was, I couldn't help but laughing until I almost wet myself. If I were ever to buy you a shirt, this would be the one.:devil:

    Sorry I haven't updated this thread yet, we have been quietly working away at this project among the thousand other projects/clients in the shop. The bigger items and custom fabrication has taken more time then anticipated. Quality will not be compromised!

    I will have some updates to this build coming next week!

    From what he has told me, there are only some slight differences from the US cars... Dont know for sure, I didnt dig into it much the one time I have seen his car. ;)

    I am not sure, I have never used the radio! As for the antenna its a shark fin as opposed to the whip!

    I am going to hook my autologic up to it and do some programing. Wonder what other surprises are lurking!

    I will have to park the car on the street corner selling myself...err I mean espressos just to pay for it all!

    I still haven't figured out the matrix of button combinations to make all the fancy drinks. I think its seek one time,volume down twice,mute three times followed by play once for an upside down caramel macchiato...:cornut:

    Because, Why not! Adds to the flavor of the whole build!Even though it gets old being asked "have you ever seen the Italian Job?"...

    It looks to be a US model--must be a military car. Is the dash in MPH or KPH?

    Because, what is different with the Italian model vs the na model?

    There has to be something to make it worthwhile.

    I imported a Pajero from Japan. It was a 2.5 turbo diesel.
    Something that could not be had, here.

    Whats the antenna look like?

    And does the radio pick up regular stations? I know cars imported from Japan the tuner will only land on even numbers instead of our odd freq numbers, so the radio wont work.
