I was on a mission to get the car from home to shop, a 2 mile distance. I had the wife follow with flashers and half way I hear a siren coming from behind, he passed us so I was not the problem. Tomorrow go-kart to body shop for final fit of sidepipe openings and then they can paint. My only issue to resolve is clutch. First a larger bore master to resolve excessive travel and then probably a longer pushrod, I have about 1/8 inch of the piston showing out of the bore when clutch is fully engaged.
Big time congrats.......so what keep you from go-karting her?
Very cool!

Love it man! Also love the Carroll Smith signature on the dash. "Engineer to Win" was his greatest work!
Seriously, VERY nice job.
Lew, My best friend from College, Tim Levenhagen was from 'tosa!
