Ok...
this isn't so much an update as it really is just me storing a few more pictures I wanted to keep together.

too lazy to do a blog at this point.

This one is the underpan for the front MC and fuel pumps.
Its aluminum of course:

About a month ago we trailered to Grand Junction and got onto a chassis dyno to tune the carbs. We were there from 8am until 5:30 and got 12 pulls in during the day with lots and lots of tuning inbetween. The temp grew significantly from 90degrees to 104F.....

very happy with the results.
I picked up a stutter for sure, but I'm going to customize/modify a set of emulsion tubes to try and cure that. Over all still very happy with the dyno work and the motor for just being such a stock 2.0S

We started refinishing wheels.
Dad did all the work.
only the first 2 are done so far but they came out great!
they were a bit curb scratched when he started. He hand polished them and then we masked and shot with a wheel paint:

race car update.
she is just about ready and serviced for the upcoming season #2
I don't have pictures of most of the updates we did.
I'll get them later... they are all pretty minor anyways.
the neatest is the front hood and thats not ready for show yet anyways.

Dad is doing his vintage school in one week to get a liscense with that group.
should be a very good time


Here is the new muffler bracket.
smaller, and lighter than the old one.
about 50% weight reduction in just the bracket:
