Mick D, you mean it's not really a thing? I guess I better put mine back on!

A few years ago I drove mine around with no windows. It was fun, but I wouldn't recommend it.

Mine's had the windows out for a year and a half now.

What a cooincidence. Mine has had the drivetrain out for that long.

I finally got off mine last weekend and started doing the fairly small amount of work I need to do. If things go to plan, I might be able to install this weekend.

Now, starting the car, that's a whole other story. That'll probably be another 2 years.

[Mick_D]

My delay is mostly me. I could do some small stuff but I've got some family things that need to be cleared up first.

[nippy]

Car should be done this Thursday then its off to get lowered/aligned. So we should be in the corral at Sebring this weekend.

[nippy]

Car will not be ready for Sebring, oh well, don't want to rush it now.

Seats are in, still need to adjust harness belts and install interior door panels. Good look at the Prototipo with quick release by Rennline. Also Laid the hood crest onto the hood just to check it out.

Turbo tie rod kit came in today.

When you were targeting Daytona, I thought it would be some super crazy multi-all nighter kind of build...

[nippy]

Yeah I guess good things come to those who wait. Its been a test in patience that's for sure. The car will go for alignment and lowering Monday. At that time, we will be also doing WEVO shift and engine mounts. Tranny fluid flush and fill. Turbo tie rods. New rotors pads and fluid. THEN I can drive her!

[nippy]

On her way home. Getting lowered to euro spec and alignment.

[cnielsen]

That is always an exciting day!

Car looks great, congrats!

Car is fantastic. I think the stencil on the tires is an eyesore, though. Somebody Photoshop them off for comparison

Great build, Nippy.

I have to agree. I love this car and the color!! But, the letters on the tire are a bit to much. And this comes from a guy who considered the same thing with Conti tires.

My suggestion, its just my opinion, would be one of 3 things.

1.) Try it with a smaller font like on the race tires(could try it in yellow too)
2. Only have one Continental per tire vs Two
3.) Maybe just go with "Conti" if you like the large font

or leave it alone because its your car. For ME its just to many letters in too bold of Font. Take it for what its worth. Otherwise your car is Amazing!

[nippy]

Getting ready to be lowered/aligned. Also turbo tie rods brake rotors w/pagid pads and racing brake fluid.
