More Progress

All 4 fenders are now installed. We drove the car to our new home in Valparaiso IN today to check out my new workshop which is under construction. We cannot move until "Taj Ma Shop" is completed. I could not resist a detour over some nice roads on the way back to our existing home. Almost 200 miles total today. Great fun. 

Also went to the regular Elmhurst IL Wednesday night car show but for an unknown reason it was not run tonight. ?

The next step is to reinstall the windshield wiper and finish the installation of the windows. DP provided 6 full automotive safety glass panels that are supposed to be glued in place. The windshield is presently 1/4" Lexan that I fastened with removable 10-32 screws.  I will probably use 3/16" Lexan for the other windows and also make them removable.  Lexan is about 1/2 the weight of glass and it is possible to drill thru it for the screws.

I'll post pix of the car with fenders when I get a chance.

In addition we made an appointment to have the graphics installed a week from Monday.

Please use the comment feature and let us know your thoughts about the color we chose?

  1. A great colour choice. It will be terrific to see it blasting around a race track when it is all set up!
