Default Hurricane HMS2002 is finally done!

I am going to call it quits. I know they are never "done" but from here it is more about tuning. I can't think of anything else to do. It seems like this thread has gone on forever but I am thrilled with the way the car turned out. The guys at Hurricane did a great job on all the changes and upgrades. I love the balance between original modern performance. All manufactures land somewhere between original everything to crazy hotrod that resembles a cobra, sort of. For me, this is perfect.

Here are the pictures.










Here are the links to the build threads.

Need I remind you that 9 months ago tomorrow you, Paul and I were standing in Lake City, IA in butt-deep snow trying to teach Cobra to trash truck builders? I'd say you and Hurricane have both come a long way, and you should be very proud.

Congratulations, its spectacular.

You've done an excellent job. She is a real head turner. It will be interesting to see how it handles at Run N' Gun

You have done an amazing job! The new company owners have done a great job correcting all the issues with my version of the Hurricane. And your craftmanship is inspiring. Well done!

Very cool Dean. Picture #3 would make a great Facebook profile pic to replace that old red RCR GT40....

It's almost the weekend, time to start tuning the weber's. I sent my registration packet to the black hole of vehicle registration. I don't really know when it will come back but I have high hopes!

Congrats Dean ! It makes me very proud that I took your advice a few years ago and went with the Hurricane. Your new Hurricane is the new "Gold Standard" for the brand.
