Nick,
Got your mounts trimmed down today,I'll ship them your way Monday.
Are you planning on using the supplied allen head bolts? If so, I'll also include my cut down allen wrench, the pass side one is difficult to get to as it is directly under one of the primary tubes.

I'm going to the big MCA show in Ohio next weekend and I though I better read their tight rules.
I have 2 tripods that I display with a custom sign and a flag hanging from the 2nd one. I found the following rule. How do you read it as.??? No display or yes display. The class I'll be in is not judged but voted on by popular vote. The car is to new I guess.

9. Signs, displays, stanchions, etc. are not allowed on/in cars to be judged. Cars entered in Retired, Conservator or Thoroughbred classes or for display only are excluded and encouraged to provide displays. All Modified class entries must provide a minimum of one 8 1/2"x11" sheet listing all visible modifications to their car. At the owner’s option, a 1" spine, 3-ring binder may be used to list modifications. Good taste must prevail for all displays.

Well, I read it as since you are not going to be judged in a formal competition then you are fine to have signs, etc. I wouldn't think that popular vote would count... You are entering as display only, right?

Thats kind of the way I'm reading it too. Another rule is you must have a Fire Extingusher at your ready. Mine's mounted in the trunk, is this cool?

4. All cars must have an acceptable fire extinguisher available at all times. However, the fire extinguisher does not have to be permanently mounted in the car.

I know - it will probably be next week until I can get the stripes on. Rob at Baltimore Street Mods is on vacation... I actually laid sheets of white paper in two rows on it yesterday. Man, I need help.
