A small update, we flew over last thursday, then after fixing the trailer pulled the car from south carolina to Jerseyville Illinois. While running down the highway on sunday, we saw that there was a drag racing going on and stopped at I 57 dragstrip to eat and meet people, it was a pleasure!

Then we arrived to family Teppens farm and started to work on the car in their gorgeous garage. Worked until 3.30 AM and then started the trip to Indianapolis where we spent the mo day watching US nationals.

Now on our way back to continue working on the car. The cam, valvetrain and converter has been changed but there is still acessories etc to put together. Then change the fluids and it should be ready to start. We have a minor problem with the driving tires..., seems that I ordered 16" tire and 15" wheels. We have to try figure that out, maybe it would be easier to find tall 15" tires than to find 16" wheels with 2" backspacing.

Still don't have the aggregate, and have to still buy some basic tools for the trip, but otherwise about everything is there, except the hitch and the u-haul trailer. If all goes well we'll should be testing at Gateway drag strip on wednesday.

Finlands biggest tabloid is following our trip and we try to make them about 3 minute broadcast everyday (if we have time to edit one), here is the latest. http://www.is.fi/autot/art-2000005352845.html
