Hear is a picture from the other day... It has changed a little since then though.

Here is a short film walk around of our RCR40 MK1
 
I plan to make a narrated version when the car is finished. I just have a few details to take car of and it will be road worthy and have the numbers on it.

I really haven't had a good drive in it yet. All my drives so far have been to sort things out. Not too fun. We still have less than 100 miles on it and I was going to drive it a few miles today if we get a break from the rain and it drys out a little.

Allen, seems sorting out cars like this is just part of the deal. I drove mine in the neighborhood a couple of nights ago and didn't realize that my clutch fluid reservoir didn't clear my front tire at full swing....Rubbed a little hole in the very corner of it and by the time I got back, she was leaking like crazy. Put on a smaller reservoir and all good. When I checked the clearance before, it was with a different set of wheels and I just didn't check it again. Whoops!

I'm sure there will be all sorts of little things that I have to chase down. In the end, we'll be way more familiar with our cars... << the positive spin on things. :)

Your car looks awesome by the way!

Brent us correct! You'll get there. Enjoy every bit of it!

As has been said the economy is bad, but I think for the right person the car will still sell. No real hurry, it's paid for and I'm not broke. If I still have the car next summer you can bet I will try and get the wife back in it. Maybe we will keep trying to get her used to just sitting in a parked car and work our way up to a drive. Time will tell.
