I don't doubt that I may be too optimistic. We'll see. Adding back the last few things...driveshaft loop, aftermarket rear shackles, etc., adds a lot of weight back in.
The car is being media blasted today. By this weekend, the new quarters will have been skim coated and the car will be in primer. The engine, trans, front end, battery box, fuel cell will have been installed. Still need to decide on a torque converter and measure for a driveshaft. Then it's only fuel lines and wiring and we'll fire it up. Still have to install lexan and aluminum door panels and dash. I can't wait!
