Photobucket black mail...

PB is wanting me to purchase a plan because I'm using PB hosted images here. And the 'reasonable' price is only $400. Strikes me as odd. Until I sort this out, apologies in advance for the images issue in the existing thread and the delay in posting new ones. If any of you have hosting cites that don't pull this stuff, I'm open.

Thanks and Happy Fourth!

I had noticed in this thread the pics were missing and replaced with the "Please update your account for third party viewing" . Strange as I've used photobucket for a few years (free) and never had a linking issue. I posted linked photos on this site 2 days ago and they're still up.

So after digging found photobucket is out for a quick buck it appears.

Bingo! Thanks for doing that digging. So frustrating.

Let's see if this work...See ya Photobucket!

Matching up supercharger pulleys to get the most of the combo - new ones arrived (standard 3.75 to a race 2.875)!

Installed and looking like a mean-green-killing-machine (belt color that is..

)

Killer carbon cam covers

The heart and lung in all its glory!

What a beast. Can't wait to see what it puts down on the dyno.

I wanted plates to match the build name - MAYHEM - but DMV requires at least 2 numbers on the plate. So, this is the next best! Hoping for a fire up soon...

Hmmm, if I was reading that plate I would see "Mate y Him" and figure your wife ran off with some Spanish guy and you bought that car to make yourself feel better.

or Mate Them...hahaha. I was surprised DMV let it through with some many potentially creative interpretations. If nothing it'll provide a good bit of fun discussions.

Our Car club uses Flikr with no problems and myself I use Drop box with ease

I'm told the hood is finished and will be back to the shop on Monday. I'll be sure to post up pictures as soon as VMS makes them available!

1SwtRide · #95 (**permalink**) 07-20-2017, 04:30 PM

Here are some progress pictures of the hood modification (scoop is not yet reinstalled). Excellent job by VMS for the cut and the paint shop for matching everything up just right...

Interior is slowly coming back together, but more for moving the car around because, well, a little birdie tells me the car has fired up more than once and a certain dyno is the near future....

Quick release steering wheel with the costly optional upside down mount has me all sorts of giddy..hahaha

That is some grade A work there gents ,looks fantastic ,Love the hood work

Is that the light at the end of the tunnel? Nahh, just my pretty trick headlight halos

1SwtRide · #98 (**permalink**) 07-22-2017, 06:18 PM

This is going to look sooooo otherworldly at night...love it! Matches some of the night time gauge lighting too.

1SwtRide · #99 (**permalink**) 07-23-2017, 03:55 PM

Hood came out GREAT! And yes, we're aware there are a few more scoop screws to install...

1SwtRide · #**100** (**permalink**) 07-23-2017, 04:08 PM

Jesus, this is truly going to be a killer car! Well done VMS

I'm pumped how the car's overall appearance is playing out
