Default It only took nine years to finish

Hi Guys,
Well here it is. After nine years since I bought the frame for my E-M my car is finally finished. I did drive the car unpainted for 3 years, but I finally I had it painted and put it back together.

First test drive is planned for this weekend.

Well done.... I'm sure the bead rolling for the aluminum panels was a pain but reflects in the finished product. Of course I like it all but the recessed fuel cap is also a nice touch.

I have this urge to compete for dubious honors: I started gathering parts and rebuilding same 16 (yeah, sixteen) years before I first drove it

So nine doesn't seem so long....

Beautiful workmanship, BTW!
