Sigh? No way, I am envious of the touring cars around here like yours will be.

Car and plan are both looking great!

As long as it gets used....street or track....it's all good! I know you actually use them and that's great!

Get any spray outs yet?

Track or street car, pick one. You are going the right way, Plus, I hear pilots are lousy race car drivers.

True...it's very frustrating to be honest. It's kinda slow, there's no ground controller to tell you where to go and no one ever numbers the taxi ways!

Overdue on updates here. Life has kept me busy recently but thankfully the car is in good hands and progressing. It seems a little weird that this is my car. I really didn't get to dive it much before we disassembled it and sent it off. In a way it's kind of like I don't have a car and I am watching someone another build. Pretty sure I'll just sit in the garage and stare once it makes it home.

The metal repair is finished and thankfully wasn't nearly as bad as it looked. She has a new roof, drip rails and few small patches. The body work has begun and it looks like my man started at the tail pan and is working his way forward. Pretty exciting time and my favorite part of any build.
