Question: Looking for picture/video of DIY/Home streamlining of an Automobile?

Some time in the last few months, I saw a picture or video of an automobile that had been modified to add a "streamlined" nose, rear wheel skirts, and other items.

All made by someones personal ingenuity, not a manufacturer.

I cannot find it again. Maybe it was tree-hugger, or a yahoo group, I dont know.

If someone has seen something like that, please post it here. first one gets the points,

thanks
The streamlining engineer for NASA, an acquantance of mine, indicated that his modeling shows drastic improvements in MPG by just covering wheel wells, door handles, taking off roof racks, smoothjing out protrusions under the car. Big improvements, like going from 21mpg to 30mpg at 60 mph on some late model vehicles, especially SUV's.

Answer: The new cars are streamlined. Leave it alone. The guy you saw was screwing it up. He didn't know what he was doing.

Question: How do I remove paint from Brass Pipes?

Hi guys and Gals, I just purchased an old house in NY. I discovered that the plumbing has been fitted almost entirely with brass Pipes. There is a section in my Laundry room that has exposed pipes that have been painted over. How can I remove this paint to expose the beautiful brass pipes and fittings from the 1960's??? The exposed area consists of 1 in main line a couple of elbows and tees branching out to 3/4 and (I believe 1/2). I do not want to remove anything, as they might be fragile and under enormous pressure. Also, It would be to costly. And quiet frankly, they do not make American brass like the old days, just cheapy China.

Answer: you can try sandpaper or steel wool

Question: I need ideas for a Classy/Sexy photo shoot.?

I have a photo shoot in 3 weeks and just wanted some ideas from other people. I am 5'10 and weigh 145 lbs. I have blonde hair and blue eyes. I need some ideas about clothes and make up. I have modeled many times but I have always been given the clothes to wear and have always had my make up done! This is all up to me this time and I would love to hear everyone's ideas. The location of the photo shoot is a 3 story beautiful home with large swimming pool with fountain. I am looking for classy but yet very sexy approach. Nothing trashy and un-tasteful.

Answer: a nice long red dress, black heels, wavy hair?
