This car could be my favorite C3 of all time. Colors, wheels, and details are just bitchin. Car looks meaner than a mother in law.

Well, after 8 months of having to find a new roll cage fabricator, an emergency out of town work assignment, and a city water main replacement project in front of my driveway, the car finally came home today. I'm looking forward to the wiring and interior project, as I have never done that type of work before.

Congrats! The car looks great, Neil. Be sure to document your wiring so you can trouble shoot it in the future without having to trace all the wires.

Here is the mock up of the driver's seat and steering wheel. I chose a Momo Prototipo wheel and mated it to an NRG short hub and quick release. The quick release was a must-have with the Kirkey race seats and side pipes. I will be using the stock Tilt/Tele column. The tilt mechanism had some play in it so I pulled it out and replaced the lower knuckle/lock shoe pins, column sphere, and upper/lower bearings. I'm retaining the turn signal switch but the ignition and starter switches will be relocated to the dash.
