- This is the first daylight the car has seen in 1 year. The set-up and offset
etc. are just temp (not close to final) to get the car rolling so we could bring
it out to wash it off and to check out what we need to do to it to get it right.
The engine goes in a few days from now... |

- Engine is in. 95% of the remaining parts are being test fitted. Some do need
to be modified. The runners for the air cleaners are currently at this length
since the hose came like this. They will be cut upon final assembly.

with hood on. Side panels are not yet completed. Tank is on. Nerfs & bumper
are being test fitted before being sent out for chroming. These are original Edmund
designs. |
Please
Note: Due to the fact that we are quickly running out of time and our goal is
to have the car running for the 2003 Latimore Valley Convention - we will be focusing
on a "running car" versus a 100% concours car. We will come back during
the winter months and work on appearance issues.

- Took car to good friend Joe Grandinetti to have him give the car a preliminary
once over. Overall, per Joe, the car was in good shape. We squared the car, took
the bind out of the suspension, set approx. ride heights, reviewed the fuel &
oil systems, worked on stager & offsets, tire pressures, etc. then loaded
it back up. (Thanks Joe) Joe

- The above pictures shows the side panels that came with the car (lower). These
panels can be seen in the later photos - but back in 1983 the panels were shaped
to replicate a Midget from the past (upper). The panels in the upper photos were
just recently found by a friend of mine. I will soon have a template and will
make up new ones over the winter months. No time at the moment - so we will use
the ones we have.
