Shake, Rattle and Roll....

The car has a shake, I hope it relates to the driveshaft. I have a new one built but need to shorten the slip yoke and possibly shorten the driveshaft.... I will measure and move ahead this week.

The shifter ter is not happy. I can get it into some gears some of the time but I need to get this sorted out before any spirited vroom vrooms.

Funny sound.... I have a feeling the sound I am hearing is an exhaust leak. I catastrophize naturally so I need to get this under wraps shortly.

Fuel mileage.... it seems to enjoy fuel :-)

Some lights need to be replaced/fixed. Dome light, dash lights, etc.

Brakes take a little (lot) of getting used to. They function as intended as far as I can tell. After Prom I had the opportunity to test them, a dingbat pulled out in front of me and I locked it up. I was impressed the car stopped quick enough for me to share a single finger communication and drive around said dingbat. I shared a verbal communication but the windows were up.... I am confident my message was clear.

Odds and ends, of course there are lots of other items to sort out over time but these are the hot topics.
