I'll jump for joy, then plan a little "extra something" for our 28th Anniversary this Sunday 
Have a suspension "clunk" in the right rear, had the same thing happen on ERA188, so I am thinking it may be a simple bushing that needs replacement. I'll get to that once I get the motor bolted back together and running. Thought I was going to have a few weeks while the motor was out to deal with it, hoping now that it is not the case . I'll report back once the motor is running and I've put a few miles on it (might be Monday afternoon  ).
Other than that, the car is as close to immaculate as one would hope for. In, out, underneath..........
