And today:
His original plans were for gloss or matte black, a pentagram badge and full-on bondage interior with the numberplate 'NATA 2' (but Toronto state Veto'd the plate idea
)
Can't wait to see it finished.

Camo Porsche:
I stopped by the paint shop and was met there by a pile of experts... The shop had been talking to the paint manufacturer and they were pretty excited about the project and sent down their top guys to make sure the job went perfectly because they want to showcase it in their catalog. The car is currently matte black and the green and tan camo tones are going on as I write this.
I want to strip out the interior of the car and replace it with green or tan canvas with big rivets, and completely "theme" the car... Maybe I can find an interior place that wants to do it for free in trade for exhibiting the car at a few shows or something. I was actually thinking of asking some of the places that make custom S&M gear, because it's sort of a military-fetish theme...
Twin-Engine Mini-Tank:
I also stopped by a big pocketbike importer and talked to them about the tank-drive go-kart project that I want to do. Because I really only need the driveline of the bike, they're going through their big pile of wrecked bikes so they can give me just the pieces I need so no money is wasted breaking down a perfectly good bike to build it.

Camo Porsche Paint
I shot up to the paintshop this morning to make sure everything was cool with the camo job — I hadn't been happy with the photos that had been emailed, so I asked for some changes and they wanted me to come in person and look it over before it's finished (there's no clear coat on it yet in these pictures)...
I'm pretty happy with where it's going — here are a couple of in progress shots.
Most people take their cars way too seriously I think...
