    Doesn’t surprise me a bit. This seems to have been a very unique built and very well done.

    The car got some attention this weekend at a local car show. It was picked as best European car last year. There where about 200 cars, several local vendors and food trucks. I enjoy meeting folks who have restored a bunch of different cars. The weather was perfect.

    I have been moving the shop and it's just going too slow. The work I've been doing is in two other shops tell I get 220 hooked into the two post lift. So here are a few pictures to look at. Most of which I probably posted before.
    I bought my car from Craig Smith in Morrow Bay so I think I need this poster.

    I talked to Jeff Abate last night for the better part of an hour. The knowledge base for POLO's over the last 10 years has really grown. I might need a refresh/upgrade in the next year or two. HP numbers are going way up. Here's a dyno sheet on his new 2.5 liter POLO. He has a second engine about done that should make another 10 to 20 hp over this one. That means there is another 30 to 45 hp to gain with a refresh. I'm not alone anymore. There is a nice group of guys out there now that really get it. 80 to 100 pounds less weight with 6 cylinder power.
