Very exciting - what a blast it is to drive. I was sort of dreading finishing, I had such a great time putting it together. I bought a Superformance, so only and to install the drivetrain (and quite a lot of other stuff). I also had a great helper (or was I the helper?). He spent a couple of months here and we worked on the car and did some motorcycle rides. Just worked at an easy pace with no time pressure, but it went very smoothly with no real big problems. No idea how many hours. Lots of time was spent waiting for things, and a couple of items (like the slip yoke) were defective and had to be exchanged. The car arrived in Feb., and I finally got 'er on the road about 10 days ago. Still have some projects to do, but it's completely driveable now.

Installed a new starter today after the one that came with the engine malfunctioned (would not shut off). I would upload pictures here, but for some reason that feature seems to be inoperative.

I'm closing in on 1,000 miles already!
