Bill,

We know you're eager to get to the track and maybe no body is OK but, AT least some seats!

Looks great......let's hear it roar!

Re: RCR #010 Build Progress

Those rears sure are wide! What happened to the lettering on your front tyre, Bill? Rub it on a curb on your test drive?

Will the painter and upholster let you take progress shots inside thier shops?
