Good point Dan. But when you 'solved' one project, you moved on to other cars and began again.
I changed appearance and big chunks 2 1/2 times and in between, changed heads, clutches, brakes and a million details throughout-but never tired of the car. The car was built to a 'shoestring' standard (back then it was rare and cool just to have one) and over time and changes, all the options and performance improvements went on. Like the mags which were unheard of on replicas for a long time.
