Default My Carrera met its US cousin today...

I met up with a Cville local who has a US 84 3.2. It was nice to see my Euro 84 with his and compare. He has done many nice upgrades and it gave me some ideas. I think he was admiring my mini bumperettes......

I like flag mirrors

And I noticed you put the original deck lid back on.

I have really warmed up to flag mirrors. Gonna leave them be. They are great on visibility, I will give them that.

I am thinking the deck lid is actually not the original, color is off a little. I think the whale tail is gonna go back on for awhile. I noticed the tail Rick gave me is from an 86 but I know he had it on there before. I want to see how it looks and feels. I ordered a custom cover to work with the tail anyway so will give it a shot...

In these cars, the extra weight and wind resistance of the flag is going to make a whole lot of difference...
