This is supposed to be fun and catching on fire is not fun...so fire suppression was in order. 10lbs bottle heat activated for fuel cell and 5lbs bottle cable pull for driver and engine

Instead of clicking a button, I thought I'd say thanks for taking these awesomely graphic pictures of the finer details of this build. All of these little things disappear so quickly with paint and passing at an event. There's that and the fact that I spent days scouring the internet when I was (looking for ideas for) building a backbrace; many of us here realize the research value of these efforts!

One day, we might get a personal look at the West Coast version of this car, unless you're planning a national tour . . .

Thanks! This probably should be in the race car section, but I do plan on putting a tag on it. LOL I am posting mostly to show Jim Pettigrew's spectacular work and hoping someone might find the pictures useful in their project.

Thank you for sharing this. Jim has a huge amount of talent.

I just can't hold these pictures back any longer. This is what it is like to work with Jim...I need a wing mount off the back of the car, wing height needs to be even with roofline. That is about all the input I gave him and this is what I got.
