    Have you compared current model weights compared to similar cars of the 70's / 80's? I believe current models are heavier.

    Sure, why not? But one thing it needs is more chrome! Like chrome pipes, chrome head covers, and chrome blower assembly. Everything looks better with chrome! It may not perform any better, but it sure looks nice! :D

    Nope, the wind kept blowing out the fire! Not enough draft you know (or drafting the wrong way)! Sorry Eric VW , I keep editing!

    Oh yeah, lots and lots of wind here. It would gust up to 45 mph with sustained winds at about 30mph. I went into town for some paint brushes and while crossing the street I was nearly blown off my feet. It did settle down around 4:00pm to 15 and 20mph winds. But the funny thing was, I didn't have any problem wit my draft!:hair: And my chimney is way way shorter than the 15' that it's supposed to be.
