That's right Gary. The DEI heat barrier works pretty well and gives you that original vintage look. We thought about a stainless steel cladding but that wasn't the look I wanted. Both would work well.

Love them Webers 
I would suggest carrying some good quality microfiber towels in the trunk so you can clean all the drool stains that will accumulate on your fenders from people admiring your work of art  |

Thanks for the compliments. I finished the throttle linkage last night. I have coolant in the system, oil is primed, wiring completed, and linkage adjusted. I think all systems are go for launch. I need to go buy some gas but I think that is all I am lacking at this point. I am going to try to get a video of the first start. Youtube allows 9 minutes I think. I should be able to get it started, set the timing and adjust the Weber's in less than that. We will see how it goes.
Here are some shots of my linkage.

Since Hurricane offers these brake upgrades, will you feed this info. back to them so they can be sure to offer the proper size MC's?

Sure, I speak to them all the time. This project has gone very smoothly but there are things like this that we just didn't count on. All new car are going to benefit from this first car.

Ron, I got your message and I will call you tomorrow.
The brakes are working great. I used a Wilwood 1 inch on the rear and a 7/8 on the front. I haven't driven the car yet but I have a great pedal now.

I would love that. The factory car has been photographed for the Dec/Jan issue. I will just have to wait and see.
