Took it easy, but WOW.... never driven a more powerful car :)
Got some gas in the tank, no major problems except the gas gauge didn't work plus gas started coming out the vent tube :rolleyes:
No glass made going fast an experience!

Looking very nice. Glass would make it look really good. One of these days, we'll need video. Just get it finished first. I don't like watching people pick bugs out of their teeth.

on the maiden voyage.

Take your vent line and run it straight up above the tank about 6 inches and make a u-turn and come down. That should cure your problem.

Tom -
Just leave the glass out and drive around with a helmet. It could be your version of a convertible. That engine looks huge in there. Glad it fit under the hood !
