  1. Bonjour mes petits voyous!

    We all love stuff that's french. Baguettes, maids, mayonnaise on fries, maids, french fries, croissants, antennas, headlights, tail lights, maids... did I mention maids?

  22. I used to take a piece of exhaust pipe and cap it to French antennas, and braze a short piece of brake line in the bottom to create a nipples to hook a drain line onto. When I read your post it took me back to those days, thanks :D
