Man, just when the idea of a VG swapped dime had sunken to the bottom of the cauldron of my automotive ADD...

This actually made me sappy and emotional....especially the part where he talks about dreaming of a solution, fabricating it, and taking pride in the process...how he takes pride in that process, even if he needs to do it over.

This was definitively a case of, "Wow, someone understands what I'm dealing with."

That road is on the backside of the mountains near the University of Utah in Salt Lake! I used to blast around back there in my old Miata. Great location for that video with such an amazing car.

I noticed a road sign for I-80 or I-15. A quick look and I saw that was Salt Lake.
Very pretty.

Great video and impressive how the subtle soundtrack really sets the mood for it.

Imagine him talking about his failure in rear suspension redesign with yackety sax playing instead.

Closest I ever got to a 510 was a B210 hatchback. Kinda wish I still had it, sometimes..even with the "Rocket Boy vs. Rodan" styling. 1200cc of A-block Pushrod Fury! Had it for about 2yrs, wrist pin clattered the whole time..but she never gave up. Sold it to a friend (for his son), it got wrecked.
