I have twice..........
The first was the February day I picked up my old CCX. Drove it home in the snow on the highway.....
The second was traveling to FFR January Moochfest in Rob Baker's FFR, was negative wind chills through the center of Boston. 
Not fun..... Cool but not fun..... |

Jeff - before you get too far in your interior assembly, you may want to remove and de-arch the springs in the front and rear. Your car may settle a bit, but i think it is sitting high by an inch or two

I planned to do the front however the rear with two people in it sits lower. Rear may be fine but I agree the front sits too high

Started back in wiring, hard to work when its 10F. Adding heat to garage in the next couple weeks. SAI harness with old school electronics takes a little work. Need to move main hole over a bit........ 
Added vintage SX wires to the little 289............... |

Jeff - spending lots of time on the little details is what sets a really good car apart from an exceptional one, and you are clearly obsessed in a way that can only end in the completion of a truly outstanding build.
Bravo!
