Smile I Hate Rust!!! Kmp275

Fellow Car Nuts:

I hate rust, so I thought I'd do something about it. Seems the only way to prevent rust was to go to Austria and purchase some stainless steel tubes...I waited a long time for these cars.

Photo is of the engine compartment of KMP275:

I need some feed back from the Nut House on what you all think...please.

This car will be for sale at Silver Auctions in Reno for Hot August Nights on Saturday Night.

Notice the latest hiem-jointed front lower control arms. Rear upper control arms are slated to be all heim-jointed, billet 7075 T-6 to match the front. The prototype rear upper arm just came out of the mill--and as we speak I can hear the CNC humming away on the final pair. Will post pics for all who are interested.
