    Is it just me or is the license plate wider than US plates? Does that mean the Brazil valance and bumper license plate indentions are wider too?

    I emailed the person that sent me the pictures and they were taken in Laval, Quebec! Since the car has plates on the front, its not from this province.

    The plate is wider and would not be surprised in indentation is wider as well.

    Stefan, I don't mean to argue with them but that is right at the exit of the prementioned park. If someone could blow up the sign on the outhouse and it was Canadian then I would change my mind but I bet it would read in KY.

    Rondo, I don't know why, that is just what Pat told me, I don't think he is ashamed but I don't know the reason. I know Pat said that all three cars were sold to people that were supposed to take them away but the buyer of his car kept it here and sold it around here.

    Here is a local company called Sani Vac that rents outhouses

    That outhouse looks like one of theirs!

    Stefan, looks like I stand corrected. I used to see that car at the show I'm talking about and it looks exactly like that at the park. After looking at the outhouse pics I would say they were right and I was wrong.

    The guy who built the car lives in Brooks, Ky. and some day I'm going to go ask him about it and the other 2. I would like to know why he picked the maverick. From what I understand also, not from Pat, he built all 3 for himself. Obviously with the intention to sell but no one came to him and paid him to do it.
