Not much of an update for ya… Picked up some more parts for the car.

LED digital inserts (brake and turn light) for my NOS tail light module. These set directly into the reflector well under the lens covers. You can use either the provided connector posts and they plug in the socket just like the light bulb – or you can remove the socket posts and connect a hardwired pigtail with a standard disconnect. The slot in the middle of the card slips over the reflector divider between the brake and turn light sections. Also received the LED flasher unit and excellent installation instructions for the kit.







Received my DNA Muffler. Stainless materials with little to no back pressure with their flow-thru design – and I hope it has the kinda sound I’m looking for. I’ll use one in the middle of the car under the torque tube. Idea came from John’s Ironwork’s Nova build. I’ll clip the ends off to a 3 inch opening and install a Q/D band clamp that you all use.







And finally new door mirrors. My car came with a different (more modern) style that I didn’t like – so I picked an earlier Porsche set that has more aero style IMO. We’ll see…



More parts in a few weeks.
Jim

Great update..... but we need more!

How are the CF parts coning along? Stop making parts for other people so you can make your parts!

I deleted the following sentence from my previous response: "I'm sure that truck-guy will understand!"

I hope all is well with both of you guys. I'm going to miss seeing you guys in Columbus this year. I'm bummed.

Columbus was great as usual. The heat - not so much, but we survived the 4 days of record heat and had a blast catching up with everyone, catching all the amazing build details of the cars that visit this show and meeting some new people. I wish I had stock in Gatorade this weekend.... it was the elixir of life for many of us !!!

We'll catch you next year Bro !

Jim

Sorry you couldn't make it, would have been great to catch up! However, if you had to miss a year this was it! The heat was unbelievable and I think it kept some people away.

Don't let it happen again though, you only get one free pass!

"Truck-Guy" out!
