No video, I’m a one man operation. Will try to set something up the next time I get it out.

Please tell me that you have kids you can drop off to school in this.

Funny enough, the school is where I usually drive to and turn around in the parking lot. Kid’s a little young but I’m willing to drop him off anyways for internet points

They’re all pretty short videos but they’re videos none the less

Awesome man- how’s it drive?

Really well for what it is honestly. It’s smooth through the gears, doesn’t stumble on the gear changes and quickly recovers and idles when you let out of it. I actually sit too low in the seat which certainly wasn’t the problem in the foxbody so I’ve gotta redo the seat bracket but otherwise I’m really pleased with it.
Oil pressure is solid and even with the one 16” spal fan without a shroud it stayed around 185 the whole time. Looking forward to putting some more miles on it

Drove around a while tonight. Think it’s safe to put the hood on it now and get the interior in it. 4 more open days to work on it before the local car show deal i picked out a few months back. Has been a good motivational tool after all

It’s just a little hometown car show weekend after next. Probably rain lol

New carpet cut and installed, seatbelt tabs welded in, seat in and interior reinstalled.
Will have to address the rear seat delete and trim over the winter but this will do for the short term
Still have a long list of stuff to get done before next Saturday.

Fixed a few things last night and got it cleaned up for the car show I’ve been working towards for months.

Got to the entrance of my neighborhood and the skies unleashed a monsoon lol

Hah! Figures Makes me remember when Scott finally finished his and went to Mustang Week. He didn't have windshield wipers either.

The car looks great Tanner.

Thanks man. Ultimately the goal was set to get me to finish the car and I got that. Rather push my son around the show for a while and go back home than sit down there all day to lose to a stock corvette lol. Gave up many many hours with him to build it, ready to take a break
