Thanks! It was nerve wracking laying up the leather. Made a few mistakes and had to redo the foam and the leather one time. Was a lot more careful after that.
It was an ex race car with a mystery history and has some cool mechanical upgrades. After about 4-1/2 years of cleaning up the lousy paint job, adding graphics, building wheels, changing all of the fuel lines, adding an oil vent tank, new turbo and exhaust, and a lot more it is not bad for a driver. Still a work in progress but it is a hoot to drive.
Only thing they did right was to repaint it in its original factory color!
