Rear cross cross member fix
Cut out the old under engineered metal. I went with a 3x3" 3/16" square tube welded straight across the end of the frame tubes.
For the bolt i went right through the entire tube.
I think this should be much stronger now.

wheel_gap2
Changed last rear bushs and tried different rear springs, old ones sacked out. Now it bounces straight up and down instead of left, right and who knows where. Problem is the looks, more like a cat with its butt in the air. Time to order some real lowered King springs...and you thought my car was ugly before....

SPF 1660 "roadster"
Don't know what SPF uses for stock mufflers but they seem kinda junky and are too quiet and restrictive. I replaced them with stainless Magnaflow straight thru's and they look and sound great but are still too damn quiet. However, I figured they would be so I added stainless cutouts with electrically operated valves. It allows 3 settings so they're currently set at 10%, 30% and full open. From mild to wild with one push of the button (hidden under the dash)...AWESOME!

On the old F1 track of Dijon (France)
Demonstration day with the Alfa Classic Club de France at Dijon. Some smaler cars using slick tyres was running about me in the corners but fortunatly the straight line was long enought to keep advantage.

Shell Valley build
Buddy Neely helping to straighten out the firewall. It looked pretty rough after the first coat of paint so we decided to do it over again.

Re-Designed and Re-Positioned brake pedal.
When we originally done the brake pedal, as can be seen in earlier photo, we used the standard size VZ HSV SS Commodore pad on the brake pedal shaft. When it was fitted, it was discovered that there was nowhere to rest or place my left foot, other than on the floor in front of the brake. The pedal shaft was straightened and the pad reduced in size. Now it's perfect.
