So a little update on my distracting toy. I have been steadily working on it since I got it about 6 months ago. I don't get much time at home, I am always around the country racing or installing systems but I finally got a few weeks at home with the 2021 race season over.
I got the new front suspension with narrowed beam and dropped 3" in and finally got the Fuchs 2 liter alloy wheels back from paint and mounted. It is starting to look like the cars I have had in my past.
I have the engine and transmission in build right now so hopefully in a couple months, I will be making some serious manifold pressure on my way to get ice cream.
It's funny, I bought this car knowing it was worth more than both my BMW's combined but by the time this toy is done, I will have more money in it than I did in my Ferrari. Reliving my youth is priceless.
