I like it. I was thinking a square peg in a round hole...

...cause that is what you guys are trying to do!

Ron, good deal. I'm back from a mini-business trip.

You around Saturday a.m.? I could pop by and pay you for the gauge, pick up the exhaust and take a look at the Jensen-Healey progress.

Let me know when you want to haul it over to Schimmel's for the cage.

The logo reminds me of when I used to teach junior high school shop class.

"Why won't this stay together, Mr. Knestis?"

Love it!

If you want to make something like that for some logos, t shirts, and stickers I know a fellow here in Raleigh that I've used for this stuff for years. Good prices and I'm sure we might could get a deal given the topic - he likes cars a lot too, just a little different than us.

Well, some more progress!

I've redone the entire front suspension, all new bits and cleaned it up and painted it. The car is at the cage builder now, so, I'm left to sort out the motor for the next 4-6 weeks while he gets the cage in place. Here are a couple of pics:

Once it comes back from the cage builder we'll power wash it and apply a white spray job with red and black stripes. Should be decent looking, for a race car.

One thing is for certain - this thing is a pain to push around on pavement with a welded differential!!!!! Grass is okay, when the tires slip, but when they grip and you need to turn sharp it is damn hard to push.
