yes he is human haha he calls him self the enigma and his reasoning for covering his whole body in puzzle pieces is that he performs as a old styled freak show him and his girlfriend serana rose and the human pin cushion (thomas) and he wanted to go all out to make his show better

what i did was first i went through and did my best to hammer the dents out the best i could then the dents that didnt want to come out fully i went and bought a five pound dent puller and drilled a hole in the center of each dent and pulled them out as far as they would go and if the dent wont come out any more just drill another hole next to it and pulled it out more then once the dents were pulled as close a i could get them i went through with some body hammers and smoothed the area out the best i could and then just went through with some bondo i did thin layers then smoothed it down i just kept doing that till everything was even and smooth

gonna have to fix that flat first! That's cool that Enigma did that for you. I've seen him on Ripley's I believe a couple of times. Doesn't he have his tongue split like a snake?

Rb20 is relatively slow... And part sourcing for a foreign motor is difficult. You should boost your KA. You can get a substantial amount of Hp from a KA once it's boosted. Auto zone carries parts for the KA, and these motors are insurable.

yah i wasnt really worried about being able to find replacement parts for the rb my brother owns a shop up in virginia that imports motors and parts all the time so that wouldnt be a big deal but i did decide to boost the ka instead i just thought srew it he motor is already in it so might as well
