Ken, I'm glad this &quot;setback&quot; to your health was caught early. You, your ambition, and your work ethic are an inspiration to me and many others here. Glad you're OK.

Good job.

Re: Next Years Power Tour Car
 

The Windshield will be installed later this week and another one of those PITA deals to deal with are the windshield clips......the screws sent in the Repro kit with the clips didn't have a chance in hell of working......Again.....these guys sell this crap and we get stuck trying to make it work.....Lucky for me, I have a complete machine shop to play with, but the average guy in his garage would be screwed trying to fix this little problem......Anyhow, here's a before and after of the screws......

The list of things to do is still long......but, it's getting shorter...

Re: Next Years Power Tour Car
 

look at that knot of wires by the MC let me at em LOL

Re: Next Years Power Tour Car
 

The clamps work awesome. They are a PITA if you have to remove something. I started to use them on most everything that is not a resto.

Looks good Ken!

Re: Next Years Power Tour Car
 

Yeah.. hide those wires. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/biggthumpup.gif[/img]
