Well he will enjoy it... plus they are quicker by a
good bit and they are easy to work on... a small roll
around stool is all you need... he should have MOST
of the safety equipment except the arm restraints which
are needed on any open cockpit car

My brothers so called drive shaft is just long enough
to get 2 U-joints in it.. I moved the engine forward
to get it in... that was much cheaper than the other
set up with no shaft.. plus its plenty light in
the front... he wanted his to be the nostalgia type
with rigid rear
