The car IS the candy. Yeah ok, I know others seem to need to drape a scantily clad female over a car to make it more appealing...

I think I just spit an adult beverage a new long-distance record! You crack me up...and make sure this doesn't get any more revealing or the little ones are going to have to leave...that means Lee would have to go away...

Does the one in the shorts just sit on the box . . .

. . .or does he sometimes sit and think?

Tell DR not to worry about the poster. You've got one of those thin Australian boys with a Polish name to do the modelling, haven't you?

She actually came from a Rolls Royce ad and as such I assumed in perfect taste. In fact, she is less revealing than most models would be in a one piece bathing suit.

No, the fellow on the crate does not think. Apart from the fact that he is just a piece of plastic (you knew that), he is representative of the one dude that always seemed to hang around at these places for the company, but didn't necessarily have an official capacity.

Just more and more in love with the little garage every time I see it.

Going to enjoy watching this Buggi come to life.

Perhaps the guy on the box needs some waxed paper and sandwich crumbs beside him.

Perhaps he's sitting down because he's the owner of the Bugatti, and they've just told him how much the work has cost up to now!

Probably in urgent need of a glass of water!

I had an MGB V8 at one time, and that's how I felt when it needed an engine re-build.

You know I don't work there. No little bits of metal all about, no pools of oil, no unforgivable girlie calendars, etc.

You could try graphite dust rubbed in for some oil staining.
