Thanks for the kind words I appreciate it, seems all my hard work and patience has paid off.

Ah the console, this little item is a casting I make for one of my customers, it is actually some kind of fire control panel for some type of artillery, not sure exactly, if I knew they may have to kill me, I cut out the center and made the bezel for it, I really like the small size of it.

Well i need to pull the trans out now, I'm a dumb ass, the other day while starting the car the starter made an god awfull noise and then died, i was able to push start the car to get it home, after pulling the starter i noticed it was slightly out of alighnment from sitting on the edge of the oil pan flange, how the hell did this ever work in the first place, so the damage is about a 1 inch section of missing teeth on the flywheel. I had planned on showing the car for the first time at the Saugus Speedway show in Santa Clarita Sept
6th so hopefully I make it. Will anyone be attending this event?
