Shell Valley build
Here's the front of the car after we removed the radiator. There was a problem with some work that the radiator shop did and the driver's side tank leaked like a sieve. The good news is that the engine fired and we were able to time it.

Here's a picture of the under carriage. Hopefully we're pretty much finished with everything under the car.

Here's a shot of the sleeve that Buddy machined up to cover the joint between the steering column and shaft going to the rack and pinion.

Arntz tranny tunnel
Shown here is the removable section of the tranny tunnel. With the big engine setback in all the Arntz / Butler cars, you can remove the transmission while seated if you desire. Only a few very late Butlers had this and all Arntz Type 4 cars. I have no idea what the many cutouts are for Also shown are the two triangulation tubes that connect the center of the cowl hoop to the 2 main frame rails for increased rigidity. The 3rd leg of the roll bar (not shown) also attaches to the same point on the passenger side frame rail. This is Arntz Type 4 only as well.
