I got it titled and licensed on Friday, of all the things I hate about Oregon goverment this is just so easy. I took the MSO down to the office filled out a simple title app and they asked to do a VIN inspection. I pulled the little VIN plate supplied by Shell Valley out of my pocket and asked if that would do, no problem said the clerk as he handed me the plates and sent me on my way.

I just got back from the tire shop getting the Coupe aligned, I just eyeballed the settings in my shop and I was very close. The rearend was only a 1/16" off of being square and the front end took just a few turns of adjustment. The mechanics are really cool at the shop so I could help out and spend as much time as I wanted looking around under the coupe as it was on the rack. No leaks and no loose bolts it looks as if I may have done decent job putting it together.

It is time to start picking out a color and get it in a paint shop, I am thinking red as nearly all the coupes I have seen are blue.

Any suggestions?
