Hi John:
Thanks for your vote of confidence in the build. She is away from being driven, but is ready to show as a "project in the works". I'm going on the optimistic side of the coin and say she should go from zero to 60 MPH in under 2 minutes..... That is with a tailwind is at my back and I'm on a little down hill road......LOL. The big event ( Mississippi Mayhem ) that I was looking forward to showing her is today and tomorrow, unfortunately it is now pouring rain and is supposed to continue with more heavy rains, high winds and possible hail throughout the day so she won't be pushed out of the garage or put on the trailer until tomorrow morning. Tomorrow's weather is supposed to be partly sunny and in the 70's. If you'd like, I'll take and send pictures of the car show.
Thanks again for inquiring and the compliments,
Take care,
Jim
