Curtis, as you know it's in very good hands! Don't be shy with posting pics! T

I couldn't agree more. With all the parts I was able to sell, I recouped a nice chunk of change to put back into the car. So far, it's worked out well.

I hope to have a few more pictures next week.

Mine hand more than a few spots that looked like toothpaste had been used as touch up paint. Some pretty high up the car to. It wasn't horrid, but it wouldn't take long for it to get there.

I'll take the eight footer full of bondo so I can beat the living crap out of it.

Yeah not bad for it's age. I agree that there's a lot to be said about the Eight Footer and the way you treat them. I can't tell you how tempting Flat Black is for that very reason.

I know...sigh. The amount of track time I will see is minimal, so it won't get used like yours does. I am temped to build another one that's much more of a track car than a driver. I actually looked at one this morning.

Sigh? No way, I am envious of the touring cars around here like yours will be.

Car and plan are both looking great!
