Hell yes, the car is coming together brilliantly. I have followed your build post since the beginning and as others have said and I will repeat myself, your amazing eye for detail, your skill in manufacturing one off items to not only do a practical job but to look blood awesome is outstanding. As somebody mentioned earlier, they would understand if it was driven on the street but I think that once you have trailed it to some events, it would be sad if you didn't get out and drive the wheels off it due to the time you have spend building it right. Congratulations on such a fine piece of automobile art.
I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

I have thought many times about taking the time and money to make my 40 nice like your 48. But, I know my patience level (and money level) isn't there yet. But I'll for sure watch and enjoy your build! What tips do you have to keep from scratching things during assembly? Bolt heads to painted areas and such.Ryan

Thanks again guys..
Tips? time just take your time, tape everything up around them and never settle for just ok make every part going on the car as nice and detailed as you can make it.
And last enjoy yourself and your car and build it the way you like. not what others think and like best of luck.

Do you plan to take it to the Detroit Autorama for Ridler contention? Seems to be in that league, to me.Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

Thanks man
Certainly nothing at that level but it should show well.
I do go to detroit and would like to take the car butttt seems every year we leave here from ohio to go there knee deep snow. dont think i want to haul that far in the snow.
I plan on doing some indoor isca stuff for a few years than going to racing the wheels off of it.
Fuel cell all polished up.
