So GW, you're just wurkin' all the bugs out and drive testing everything before you give it to your bride, right? How thoughtful you are!!

When she gets it -- it WILL BE perfect.

I'm having Don Hardy Jr dyno it (he's here in Texas)... and there's already a tail light out... and the driver window glass needs adjusting... and Phil (The Roadster Shop) was here and told me about some top adjustments...

So "maybe" the Good-Guys Pleasanton show..... and then back to Brizio until she gets it in June. I don't want the Lotus leaking on it.... :>)

Cuz flying squirrels like to cuddle on Sid Chavers' leather duds apparently.

I've found the weather and wind in Texas to be less than ideal... To say the least. I don't want to mess up a brand new car before it's gift time. Texas seems to have a bit of "dust". As in OMG.

Default another Hot Rod

Baja Cantina.. my favorite event of the year
The Thursday night before the Historics, Italiano and Pebble

Park the Pantera and get out and walk down two cars
and the Hemisphere is parked there. another year a real
Daytona coupe pulls up and parks.. sold later in the weekend

Every kind of car imaginable pulls up or passes thru

So the Brizo ride weighs 2900lbs plus.. I was thinking
more like 2500.. All steel, maybe heavier to make
it ride better
