Coming along nicely Trey. Hope to see you on the road soon!

Ha! Thanks Dave. I realized the clothes were there after I took the picture. The clothes are actually indicative of how long the car has been on the cribbing, and I've been working on the exhaust. The pile on the right is my long sleeve shirt and hoody that I was wearing when I started this project. I had a few weekends when I was out there with highs in the 40's. That was a while ago now. The clothes are washed and put away for the season now.

Thanks Scott.

That's really cool! And big props to you on the relief in the frame connector for the hard lines! Awesome attention to detail!

Thanks. I really appreciate it. I got the idea from Vince at Mean St.

Thanks Steve. I should have an update soon. Well, I guess I should say soonish. Modifying a car never seems to go as planned.

Trey---it's great to see all the progress bro. Feels great I'm sure.

What are the plans for the car---driver/autocross/road course---etc?

Thanks Doug. It does feel good even if it's moving slower than planned. The car is mainly just a driver and weekend canyon carver. I'd like to try out some HPDE schools since I have two great road courses very close and a few more great road courses not too far away. We'll see where I ultimately end up with it, but I want to enjoy driving it more than anything at this point.

I can say, that after all these years with my car (it's been running nearly the entire time) the driving, specifically the road trips, have been the best part of having the car. There's been nothing as cool as a 400 mile trip up the coast to a GG event with all the guys, running the autocross, then driving home with everyone. For me, it's the part I still love the most. Road courses are fun as well, but driving the car still does it for me every time. We are headed out to the local Donut Shop hang out tomorrow morning here in So Cal--the drive there and the drive home are still what I look forward to the most. Keep in going once you have it running and enjoy as much as possible!
