Small update:

Best of show has finished reworking the trans tunnel, not that you can see much.


They have also reworked the inner fenders to clear the 275's up front which required a repaint.



Haven't gotten to the bottom of yet but it's looking more like either something is off on my car or subframe. As you can see in this earlier pic the driver's side front wheel is not centered very well. Car is at the alignment shop right now to get an alignment done and see if further modifications are needed. More to come

Not that it will probably end up making you feel much better, but I don't think the the problem is with your car. The black convertible at BOS had the exact same issue with its TCI subframe. Two in a row with the same problem seems like more than a coincidence, but then again these are 40 year old car we're dealing with.

Ha ha I'd rather it be the subframe than my car itself being that out of square. Dick told me about the other car and how they fixed it last week. Knowing that it is two in a row and that my previous subframe had the wheels fairly centered even with over 5* of caster also makes me doubtful that it is my car but I'll wait until it's back from the alignment shop and see what Dick says.
