Very true. Anyone, even assembling a semi-roller would have some questions or minor problems to sort out. Must have suffered a life altering event.

Hi guys. Boy, time certainly does fly by. I’m alive and well. No life altering events! I did finish the car and have around 3000 miles on it now. It took me about 5 months to put it together. I kept meaning to update this build log and I did take pictures along the way. I guess I got busy with other stuff and never got around to it. I’ll try to make time this week to dig up those pics and get some posted for you guys. Of note, I did drive the car on the entire 2000 mile Hot Rod Power Tour last year. It was quite a trip considering I left out with only about 750 miles on the odometer. I love the car! It is enormously entertaining to drive and certainly gets plenty of attention!

Gasdoc,
That is great to hear! Looking forward to build pictures.

My car should ship by the end of January. Can't wait!
Evan

Excellent. Post some pics when you can. Any mechanical glitches on the maiden voyage?

That's a true testament to the build quality and your manliness. Well done sir! I hope you documented the trip well with photos, videos, logs, etc. Sounds epic, scary and incredible.
