This car is a lot of fun....
SO...during the build I went a bit further than expected. I ended up installing a tubular front end, and upgrading nearly everything as I went along. I have yet to have it tuned, but it runs like a beast.
Here are some more recent pics of the engine bay. I'm getting there. More little things all the time.
