You need to record a sweet sounding internal combustion powered car ripping through the gears, that Pantera maybe, and play it on a loudspeaker when you drive this car.

I would recommend replacing that egg crate foam insulation. That crap will disintegrate and make a huge mess.

Very cool Wayne. You must be having a blast bringing her back to life.

Are you redoing the body or reinforcing it?

What are you doing here, laminating/forming/?

Amazing journey, Wayne! You are to be commended.
I suppose if it were to be built today the chassis would be carbon fiber and 3D printed aluminum..

How time and technology marches on.

You're at the point of trying to decide if you want to trade it for a four wheel drive Viper?
