Re: Webers the right way!

I just want to comment quickly that throughout all this, Ian has been very careful to touch base with me with what he was doing. True, what started as a simple "...hook me up with a vacuum source, please?" project turned out to be a major undertaking; nontheless, I'm very pleased with the results and I'm appreciative of all the effort that went into it. He read his customer right, that I enjoy these cars as a work of art and take pleasure in what I consider visual artistry in a mechanical sense. Of course, I have yet to install and tune the kit but I'm optimistic; I have Oliver's DVD [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
I'm new to this but regarding form over function, I'd be driving a Prius if I was a "function" kind of guy. What's the spirit of building and driving a replica anyway? Replication of both the visual and spiritual experience, right?
