in retrospect, i enjoyed this project, but i don't want to do another. maybe in a few years, then i'll be too old to.
i love the way the car looks. yet to have any casual friends notice my "oh-sh##s". kinda of apprehensive to take it to one friend who builds cars for clients.
haven't driven enough to get a feel for that. it seems to have plenty of power!! , i haven't put foot in new engine at all.
concerned a little about how "skittish" the steering is. but haven't had wheels alinged. it is like a "go cart" just off center.
brakes are a learning experience, manual no power: difficult to remember how hard one must press to get big stopping.
i really appreciate the support you gave me through out, as well as all the support this forum gives.
thanks to all.

Congrats!!
Everybody has "Oh Sh$%@" Usually the only person that ever notices them is you.
