Hey, Figured I'd update you all! I'm still working on this car, even though Life keeps happening!

I got the shop done enough to finally rescue the Nova from the shipping container and get it home:










But then, racecar happened. This is a '94 Mazda MX6. It was built to be a backup racecar for the team that is racing a 94 Ford Probe racecar I built and raced in 2015. (I think you can see some pics earlier in this thread.)

They blew up the engine, and wanted a new one built. Shops were all really busy, so I said i'd do it.

I of course, enlisted my daughter to help!









So with that done, back to the nova!

Nope. The Probe I originally sold to this team, decided it was jealous of the new engine in the other car, and it failed too. So, I built another engine!










I got to join the team for a 24 hour race in Colorado, which was a blast!




Ok, NOW I can go back to the nova. I finished up some wiring on the car, did the brake and fuel lines, and built the engine:







Then, I built a TDC indicator:



Currently, I'm wiring the engine.
