Subject:      Running Boards on a Westie Syncro

Greetings Sports Fans!!


I just returned from the car wash with my 1987 Westie Syncro.  I 
managed to get the remnants of our last ski trip off and was thinking 
about how running boards would look.  I don't think I would lose to 
much clearance if they are mounted properly.  I think it would protect 
the sides much better than the standard "Drill Big Holes in the side of 
the Van" mud flaps.  They might even work better than the Harry 
"MacGyver" Yates' specialty mud-flaps.  Check out his homepage if you 
are curious.


My questions are...


1) Has anyone mounted running boards on a Westie before?
2) What brand names should I look out for?
3) Will it look stupid?  We still want to look good you know!!  ;-)


Cheers
Tony
