Ferrari Guy,

It looks very purposeful - I love it. My favorite cars look like they were designed and built for a specific reason - not for the masses. Very nice.

Thanks for the compliments.

There are a few more things on my list but all in all the car is pretty close to what I had envisioned. I wanted a short hood Euro Cafe' Racer.

Jax where are you on the Cape? I grew up and Sandwich.
Are you going to the Hemmings Import and Sports Car show at Lime Rock? A whole group of MA Pelicanites are caravaning down together and you are welcome to join us.

Andrew

Nice looking car.

Looks pretty good, not too sure about the wheels.

I think a nice finishing touch would be to ditch the rocker panels and have it filled in and painted.

I feel the rockers tie the front and rear bumpers well

plus they cover up the oil lines. I kept them on purpose. The wheels were chosen to have something other than the usual suspects on a short hood. I actually have the Factory hubcaps I have just not gotten around to putting them on.

Short hoods are cool and don't generally rust. Nice job! So stop being a tease and give us the details? Did you fill the fender filler? Fuel cell? Engine? Suspension? And I really like your seats.

I like it a lot. The detail that sticks out most to me is the mirror(s). Something round and small, like a Raydot, would look nice.


What switchgear are you using for the Marchals?
