Wow, that is awesome and I watched both video's of the car and must say, that purple is absolutely stunning colour . I will also say that I was undecided back when you mentioned painting the centre of the wheels but, damn good choice in the end. You have created a very fine beast.I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

You have done some awesome work with this.

How is the time going towards that first show, will you be doing the normal last second rush like most of us in preparation to have the car finished ? Certainly looks so different from the starting project you had.I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.
