Didn't know that Rich. I know once on Powerblock she was wearing one of those flesh coloured shirts that make it look like you're tatooed. My wife saw it and thought they were real.

Here's a couple of photos off her website. Used without permission!

Ah...maybe that's what I saw too! So, if she is sans tatoos, count me in!

I used to have several young wives, but found it essential to always have a faster car than their husbands.

here's a pic of my old man's 7. he owned it from '82 until about '93. Raced the car regularly, it had 12A extend port with racing beat exhaust 15"x7''s which were "big" back then. Bought for $10500AUD and sold 11 years later for $9000AUD

Nice looking car, was it a late 79 model? The 15" wheels are interesting as they are the same as on 83-84 USC Targa RX-7s, almost the same pattern as the early Simmons but with a different centre section.

Hell, I bought my first RX7 a couple years ago because the guy said he was getting too old to be messing with them anymore... and I'm 4 years older than him! I'm turning 50 going on 29 and having a great time. Still wondering what I'm going to mdo when I grow up! You only old when 1) you think you are or 2) when you wake up dead... then your one day too old!
