Welcome to the group. Glad to hear you won't be tempted to give it 4 wheel drive.

We just got neck deep in the build this week. Lots of stuff to coat so there's a little lag time before the real fun stuff is posted. Eric's car is going a step further with the front racing apron and other details...

The front apron will look cool, but it's going to be interesting going in/out of driveways (unless it's removable).

It will have Dzus style fasteners. I already told Eric it will live about 1 week on the street  I suppose if it breaks we can supply him a continuation apron.  |

The continuation apron is perfectly acceptable, as the original apron and the continuation apron (if needed) will remain in the "apron registry" forever.
Hey, there's an old Kinks album/song "Give the People What they Want."

I just hope the general public is not confused by the continuation apron with all those replica aprons on the market. I agree though by definition of the apron registry that it will in fact be a real apron.

I think the real problem will come when the continuation aprons eventually hit the auction block and prospective apron buyers and sellers, those people who can drop a large sum of money on aprons, the wealthy, may have issues spending their money on what may be perceived as replicas of the original aprons. |

She's ready when you are:
Had some delays on tunes, headers, and all the other little items to make this car the killer it is. I can not stress how amazing this car is on the street, at 3.5k RPMs you realize something is going to pay... |
