Thanks for the positive response, guys! It's truely much appreciated. It's been quite a joy doing all these things over the past 5 months to get it to the point it is currently and I'm really pleased with the way it is coming out.

Getting in and out isn't that bad. You just go in head-first, grab the down-tube of the roll bar, and swing your butt down in the seat and pull the other leg in. Getting out is the reverse.

Thanks very much. There were a number of others who suggested leaving it black, but it has definitely added a more "finished" aspect to the look I am after with this car having painted it the body color.
As far as what is next? ...just detail stuff I think...that is if someone doesn't fall in love with it at SAAC37 and want to buy it.. who knows.
There's a few chassis-related things I'd like to do to get it to handle exactly as I think it should. Most of that is alignment-related...I might also play around with another set of sidepipes I have.... All in all, the to-do list is getting quite a bit smaller..
