Nope. I wish it did but it doesn't.

Honestly, I got it because I've used it before and its awesome and #2 it fits perfectly in the dash.

Awww it thinks it's people!

Mild updates... Little tasks are under way, worked solidly for 6-7 hours the other night and very little physically changed. Ah well, that's how the details go.

Test fit the front clip.


Got the rear tail lights to work with functional reverse lights.


Dash test fit and mounted.




Mounted pass. side mirror.


Fabbed up an inner door panel out of aluminum and plastered with vinyl faux carbon fiber wrap... Probably going to change this eventually when the interior is completed but for now it works.


Underside of the door handle.


Backup camera testing.


Shark fin for mounting camera.


Wiper motor installed.


Gratuitous rear-end shot for no other reason than just because.


Crude alignment.


Calibrating the fuel sending unit with my lovely assistant whom does not need calibrating.


Aerocatch studs. Made a series of aluminum plates top and bottom to support the studs.


Pic of 90* air intake. Again, crude but effective.

Wow is all I can say.

Are you going to be street driving this beast and if so how hard is it to get titled and insured ?

I talked to my agent about a Brookville Roadster pick up and they told me that I wouldn't be able to insure it through them and would have to go to a specialty insurance company and suggested I take a 2million dollar umbrella policy as added protection.

What an absolutely beautiful build!

Yep, it is street driven. I got license plates and will have to get it inspected before I get the full title. So we'll see how that goes.

As far as insurance, I went through my regular agent and did an agreed value policy that would cover the cost of parts, but no labor. $500/ded and a full year payment. Cheaper than my daily!!

Eric, will you be at the Street Machine Summer Nationals show in a few weeks. I definitely want to check the car out in person.

[MaxHarvard]

I sure will be!

Going to try and get it into the competition
