Default Kirkham - now and then

My Kirkham (KMP 300) is about 8 years old. During that time I have followed some of David's and Thomas' posts about the incremental changes since then. I decided to send my car back to Provo in order to have updates installed. New suspension (with a rear anti-sway bar), electrics, gauges, pipes, insulation, ventilation, glove box and many other items were replaced with the current evolution of products.

All I can say is OMFG!!! What a huge difference. The car has not lost one ounce of it's brutal impact, but it is soooo much smoother and harmonious. It beats you up less, but handles, accelerates, stops and turns much better. I hesitate to use the term "refined", but the car just works better.

I write this to thank (and compliment) the folks at Kirkham and also to encourage others with older cars to think about updating them. There are hundreds of little improvements that add up to vastly more enjoyable car.
