    There are a few cars around my area that are propelled by something that sounds remarkably similar to Wankel...... ;)

      nice looking but rot boxes, I went for a test drive in one some years ago and the seat was extremely spongy, when checking underneath it was so rotted out one corner of the seat bracket was showing through a great hole. I think it was only the carpet holding it in

            IMG_6278 (2).JPG @Fat Controller , the paint is exclusive for that car, no one can use it. I am attaching the award he got that day, its actually an award that is better than "best of show". Twice that day, before the award, a money offer was made to buy it. $250,000.00. We are expecting more one day. He'd not ready to let the girl go anyway, just starting to have fun with it. anyway this is the award. have to resize it. hope it works now.

              You wouldn't want to sell that car @redstar - there is pure love in that car.

                Well, @Fat Controller , its been 3 years working on the car. Who knows, faced with a certain figure what one might do. We shall see. In the meantime, we are going to another car show end of this month.

                  Nothing better than a man, with a plan, and a garage(and an understanding wife).

                  I don't disagree - replace the last letter of the name with one a little higher up the alphabet and you will see what I was referring to. ;)
