During the summer of 2003, I once again saw my good friends of the Effjott-IG at their spring rally. Sometime ago Horst Blim trusted me with some preliminary shots of his latest creation. Of course I repaid him by plastering his 'new born baby' all over my home page for the last year ! Upon arriving at the rally I asked Horst if he'd brought his fighter. "No but we can go home and get it", was the reply. And we did. I seem to remember a trip of about 300km. But I think you'll agree it was worth it !

 No room for the Missus ! |
Love those cans !

Pointed end

 The evil eye ! |
Though Horst was at pains to point out he'd still not finished, I reckon it still looks very tasty !
Since then Horst has completed more work to his fighter and sent me some more shots !
