It's been a while and a few have sent messages wanting updates so I took some pictures last night to give everyone a look at what I have done to date. The calendar has been full of family things so I'm going slower than I want but still have all the joy of a kid with his new toy. I continue to...

Very cool car for a drive! I'm sure you get some looks.

The first task after receiving the car was to take it apart which I considered the first step. Seeing all the projects I started working on the tanks install. I have been looking at using a AN 16 size line between tanks and it appears there is room to run the line outside the cockpit in front...

Well she arrived on schedule and it didn't take long to undress her. I will start posting more pictures when I can. Fran and the guys at RCR did a great job and I'm really happy with all the extra stuff. David I included a photo of the spinners, so you can see what I had waiting for her. Fran...

I was emailed yesterday and understand the car is ready to ship. So a trip to RCR is in order to collect the car a bring it to Texas for final assembly. I can't tell you how excited I am to finally get my hands on the car. Fran's team has been busy giving the extra small parts and installing...

Thanks Fran,

I'm interested in seeing that big old engine. They really look great in the back of a GT40. Don

I thought I would share what’s up with the car. The last month has been busy however I have made some progress with making a wiring harness. After about four tries and the help of Tim Ganskop with part model numbers I was able to make the switch/fuse panel the correct size out of 14 gauge...

Gregg, I have no skills with car design but your rear view reminded me of the other car I really like the Mk IV which has a large rear glass window. If I could suggest make the rear glass smaller by moving the rear body work up changing the perspective of the glass. I have attached photos of...

Glad you joined Gregg. Happy to see a fellow Texan on board. You should come to San Marcos March 27th thru 29th to talk cars with a lot of fellow car nuts. Don

Glad you joined in Jim. Lots of information hear and helpful people who love cars. I live close in Cypress and always thinking about or working in the garage. Don

Very nice!

Those are funny, the broom video reminds me of someone talking about their original 1960's race car. The picture proves it's the original ;) Truly funny!
