Subject: DML: Marks "Hemi Dak"

  Hey DML'ers, I think Mark was pulling our Legs!!

First, I would like to explain that jealousy is not the issue here! I'm
just a little curious about a few things in the "Hemi Dak" picture of Marks.
I work in an environment that puts out pictures like this alll day! In
fact, those pictures are what we create models from.
  1) The angle of the engine sitting in the compartment is impossible from
what I see. Exhibit A!!

   Wouldn't the angle of this put the tranny well passed the floor board?
  2) Please see Exhibit B! 6th picture down. I would be advisable to have
both exhibits on the desk top at the same time so you can compare.

   Notice the computer at bottom, tape on the wiring harness near firewall,
angle of the hood open and the tell tale sign; the red rag, white rag, and
medicine bottle on the battery IN BOTH PICTURES!! Wouldn't you atleast move
the last three items before or after a motor swap? They certainly wouldn't
be there all the way through the procedure! The photographer even stood in
the exact same spot and at the exact same height to take both photos, if
both were real. But I don't think they are.
  What first tipped me off, was the little black mark on the lower pulley
rearward of the pulley. That is an airbrush over spray from Photo Shop!
   Just my opinion, but my experience with Mark, Photo Shop, Alias, and
Illustrator tells me it's Fake.
  I could be wrong, but I don't think I am. If I am, I will leave the list.
If not, can people be allowed to intentionally mislead the DML? Or was Mark
just pulling our legs? You be the judge
Eric Kurtz
