long over-due update.

first of all - THANK YOU to those forum members here and many others that donated, helped, and contributed to make this project not only a success...but to be COMPLETED in the first place. THANK YOU!

The fellows from Florida drove it up on June 1 from Florida - drove all night long. It broke an alternator bolt in Kentucky - was fixed in a few and back on the road. Made it here for a promotion on Sunday, June 3 - then it went to pick up the two Illinois legs of the Power Tour. The folks from Dakota Digital were gracious and let us put in the vendor area to show case the amazing gauges.

The fellows rolled back to Florida and arrived safe and sound this last week. Only problem - the alternator bolt.

It went over 2,600 miles - virtually flawless.

Unlike many give-away cars - this one will be well flogged out and every possible silly loose thing dealt with prior to being given to the new owner.

We are marching to November 10!!!!!!!!!

The car has had some cool updates since it left Illinois in September - the interior has been detailed and tricked with one-off R embossed parts - trunk interior detail...I has had the side windows tinted, a boosted stereo system, and more. Just keeps getting better.
