Thanks! I thought about selling it but no one would have paid me for what I had into it. I rather take a loss and keep the car. Then to take a loss and to try to find another one with a straight body. If I had the space I would have kept it and built another one. I was actually able to bless one of my car club members with my old drivetrain (he's a hard worker and has been dealing with a bunch of crap lately) which made it all worth it.

Yes sir, I wanted something that was easy to get in and out of and had a local shop build a cage similar to the ride tech tiger cage
