There's not much to say that hasn't already been said. Excellent all around work! David G.

A great idea, well executed! David G.

They're in there... they almost always are... trust me on this one. The bones are a bit too clean and white, but otherwise, excellent work. David G.

Excellent work, it has a nice solid feel to it. David G.

That's a great looking build. David G.

It's got my vote! David G.

There were internal combustion engine cars in the game, they were just very rare, so you could certainly build that way in you wanted to. But, I see building an electric car as described in the game as one of the unique challenges that would set this CBP apart from the other post-apoc builds. If I find the time to jump in on this one, I plan to build an electric car as described in the game. David G.

Now it looks a bit like a hearse. Still good, though. David G.

Excellent work! Great job on all the modifacations. David G.

Remember too, almost all the cars had electric power plants with motors in the wheel hubs. Having an internal combustion was a rare exception in the game. David G.

Wow! That just looks great! David G.

One of my all-time favorite games. I still have all my Car Wars sets and several copies of Auto Duel Quarterly. I may jump in on this one. David G.

I think Harry was just looking for a back-story- something like "Oh, it's a Eruo-Hawaiian style Cal-looker." Nice looking Bug! David G.

Very authentic except for one thing; no CB antenna! You've really captured the midwestern 80's highschool beater look. David G.

One of my all-time favorite monsters. Very well done! I love the way you nailed the wet-shiny look. Any chance you could post a few more pictures? David G.

This is coming along quite nicely! David G.

That's the plan. I just put some foil on it tonight, so hopefully, not too much longer. David G.

Thanks for the pic. I'm planning something similar for mine. I was thinking about using those single "can" style headlights- I just haven't decided how many. David G.

Most Impressive! David G.

And once the gov't gets a hold of them, they never let go David G.

See? It's a word that's fun to use, isn't it? David G.

Looks like you've got a lot to be proud of! David G.

More to the point, almost everybody in this country knows the word "banzai" and has an idea of what it means. Even if they don't use it every day, its usage and meaning are understood and accepted by most English speaking Americans. Exactly my point! Thank you. David G.

You're right, but my point is, what can we do to stop it from happening? Things change, there's not always a lot we can do about it. And yes, "Banzai". It was brought into common usage in English by our GI's who served in WW II. The Japanese soldiers typically used it as a battle cry during desperate infantry charges or suicide attacks. David G.

In the New York Times article cited above, there was one woman who was offended by the term "haboob" just because of its Arabic origin. I find that kind of thinking offensive. She expressed a concern that our returning military service personnel may become distressed and upset if they hear an Arabic word uttered in public. I'd like to think that the men and women who serve in our military are a bit tougher than that. In fact, it's quite possible that some of them brought the term back with them and helped to introduce it into common usage. Isn't that how foreign phrases like "Banzai!" and "Gung-Ho" came into common usage in English? "Toilet paper" is now called "bathroom tissue", "stewardesses" are now "flight attendants", "shell-shock" has become "PTSD", "plain" M&Ms are now labeled as "milk chocolate" and "prunes" are now "dried plums". All languages continue to grow and evolve, the changes occur whether we want them to, or not. So I guess the question should be, "Why not?". David G.
