Finally got it running and stopping. Still lots to do, but a huge step forward. So many thanks are due to so many SAAC members for their help with finding the right parts, proper finishes, process guidance, vendor services, and just motivation to keep going after dragging this mess home 22 years ago. Now it’s home, running, and hopefully going to see the streets later this summer after the front clip and rear fiberglass gets done. No time for paint, carpet or door windows. Going to rip around in primer like a 70’s street machine for a while, no hood and tall stacks. It was a custom 70’s street machine when it was left for dead in about ‘77-‘78, so I figure I owe it at least a year like that before finishing it all “properly”.
Lexan windows came from a drag car for $80, velocity stacks from a lake race boat. I kinda like the view from the driver seat.
