thats an easy fix if you want to move just add a .25 spacer. Its the other way thats a problem

Exactly Mike!! Those were my thoughts, therefore I played it safe and cut my number by 1/4 inch and all was well.

Looks good Marcus, I’d leave it alone. It’s going to move around while racing….I mean driving…and you’ll appreciate the .250”
That car is already due for its first wash and you haven’t even started it yet.

Yeah, I'm gonna leave it be Scott. Not a big deal at all. I'm gonna get out in the garage tomorrow and try and put the brakes on if I can stand the heat. Y'all know about these Texas summers...it's way too hot.

Got out in the garage for a few hours the other day and finished up yesterday. Got the brakes installed. I don't think I mentioned either that I'm using Dakota Digitals TPMS system. Not something I needed, but just figured it'd be a cool function to have.

Well, not much of anything new, appearance wise. I pushed it outside today for the first time since I brought it home and washed it. Had to get nearly 8 months of dust off of it. You can see in the second pic how the car will look black-ish with dim/lack of light or at night time. I was wiping it down as if I had somewhere to go. I fantasized about starting it up and driving it off, all cleaned up. It was supposed to get the exhaust done this month, but that's a no go. The shop is running behind, so I got pushed back to mid-July. So, we'll see...
