Hello Rick,

The front end on my Unique was the MG and I swapped it for a new A arm set up from the Weavers. It was further modified with NASCAR style A-arms to replce the upper arms. The new A-arms are fully adjustable and really improved the handling/turning radius/driveability. The brakes are the Wilwoods on the front and inboard Jag on the rear end.

As for the Coupe, it will be the first product of the new organization and I would like to have the car before next June. I have committed that the "Team Jenny" Coupe will at a minimum be at DVSFIII. We are just now putting the final touches on a contract that details the entire car and the components that will be used in the build. The most important detail is the quality of the work Ed and his team bring to the equation. The new organization allows Ed to focus his talents where they are best applied and sets up a viable business environment for growth and profitability for everybody at Elite. I feel I am the first beneficiary of the positive direction they have taken.

BTW I sold SPF#343 and kept my Unique, it is a better car.....
