I hope so
The inspiration, as I am sure for many of us, is the car in your signature. I still recall seeing the blurb in Hot Rod Magazine when Big Red hit the scene, I was either a senior in HS or just graduated, after it ran the Silver State Challenge. My friend mail ordered a VCR tape (recall those days!) of the event and with seeing that car in action and it was all over for me. That and shows like Glory Days that Dave Despain did back in the 90s with a lot of SCCA Trans Am footage.
I am always sort of learning as I go so the car will definitely be a work in progress, hopefully not for 17 years like the 914 was, and one of the things I am going to have to learn is fabbing and MIG welding really thin steel. I still blow holes thru thin stuff
Well that and learn how to TIG - I gas welded really well about 15 years ago, you would think I could pick it up, but so far practicing with TIG has not been so promising haha.
