Looks like were good to go for detroit. A few little things to do and check some clearances. This thing sits pretty low . May have to adjust some.. The second windshield i had cut they cut it 1/8 of an inch smaller on the heigth than my pattern and I just got it to work but im not happy with it. Really wish id had a little wider trim but its gonna be ok for a while then im going to take it to a glass shop and let them do it.Its pretty cold out today I should shower and hit the garage and then drive it down to the corner and back while the streets are still dry :) It was all I could do yesterday to not make a run.....

Well I went for a ride. doors squeek and creak a little and the throttle was hanging a bit about 2500 rpm but i fixed that. The rest can wait but i did see a couple spots where the doors were starting to rub at the bottom so ill make some 1/2 dia rubber pads to glue in spots on the inside bottom of the doors. Other than that it seems just like the other 4 ive built. Put em together drive em fix the little things.. Sure was fun and man does it look nice outside in the sun........................

I'd just sit and look at it....but I'm not sure about doing it right now..that white stuff looks awfully similar to the stuff in my freezer....and thats just too cold for my liking......Love the car..hate the weather :)
See Ya

Boy, that does look great.  It looks fast to me, just sitting there. I think I would have been scared to drive it at all on the snow.  With my luck someone would plow into me.

Would've replied earlier, but I couldn't see the pics. Turns out it was because I wasn't logged in. D'Oh! (and I'm meant to know about computers!!!)

Lookin' good, but I agree with what you said on your other post. Some taller tyres on the rear (and the front) would look better.

Well done and good luck at the Autorama.
Yes it is Grandad\'s Old Rambler!
