    Beast of an Engine in this ERA Beauty

    Beautiful replica without the engine, wonder how hard to handle this one? That is a lot of engine.

    Hard to believe someone would spen that amount of money, hold the car for over 12 years and only put 358 miles on the car. These cars are made to DRIVE!

    What's it called when you joyfully keep pouring gobs of money and ridiculous amounts of time into it?

    There is at least one place that art is driven. Google images "Burning Man Art Cars".

    Dave,
    My wife calls it a narcissistic hobby, that keeps her car on the driveway. I call it "so what" under my breath.
