Running around in second, I want more gear.

Get a paddle shifter, too. Lots mo fun.
The 3.90 gear is great..... my 69 is set-up this way..... and it launches hard!! Paddle shift for sure!!

Thank you and it was and is still a fun project. I actually just finished doing the Bed Liner coating in the trunk this weekend.

Yours is going to be at a much higher level then my build was as mine was built to be a driver/bike hauler so nicks and scratches are okay with me as it adds to the patina.

Marty.... don't sell yourself short....your car is bad ass. I think it's cool that you blended your passion for an awesome car and the love of biking. You will no doubt get a lot of enjoyment out of it!

I'm going to put all the goodies in this build (as much as my checkbook will allow), but not go to the point where I'm afraid to drive it....I think the bed liner is great idea, it will really hold up to a lot of abuse.

Definitely going to be a cool build with the LSA.
Have you ever had your 69 at the Green Street Cruise Nights in McHenry by any chance? I swear I've seen your car before, or maybe it was at the Summer Nationals in Milwaukee.

I've never taken the car down to McHenry...but I was at the Summer Nationals with the 69.
