Going to WA State patrol this week to get inspected then insured but first creating a list of torque checks and making sure everything is tightened.
Any recommendations or experience with inspections, I feel like I should try and put it under the assembled vehicle category to put it as a 65 shelby cobra rather than inspected as a kit car. Is this mindset correct? *shrug
Anyways, here is a video and yes, the passenger side pipe has been realigned and tightened, i yanked it when trying to crawl back from underneath the car.

Nick, kudos to your wife on the color scheme choice! I really appreciate the simple (no stripes) approach when it's done well. It gives them such a clean and elegant look! Awesome work on crossing the f i n i s h l i n e! Now, go out and enjoy all the miles of smiles. And may safe roads always find you...

Thanks! I was wanting to call the painter every day to add the stripes. I was sweating bullets but glad I didn’t.

Hi Nick,
I see you're from Portsmouth NH, I'm York Maine, just a few miles north, and just finished my roadster a few weeks ago and registered and inspected 4 days ago. Are you still in the area? I see that you mention WA patrol.
If you're still in the area, keep an eye out for a brown roadster with a driver with a huge smile on his face.
