I'm partial to orange...what paint did you use? Well it's House of Kolors Sunset pearl, over a white base and way to much of it to get what we were after color wise

Sure looks waaaaay different from the last time I saw it in Wyoming for sure. Need to put it in a glass box and just show it off. Over the top for sure. Great work Al. I am sure you have a lot of people to thank. Can't wait to hear some real numbers. 👍 Well there aint much if anything left of that car. We had to do a lot of repair to the carbon body for sure. Lots of cracks and poorly done repairs over the years. But it's coming along well.

Man, that's sweet. Hey Al, I have the same fuel regulator. Is there any reason why you put the pressure gauge in the bowl line instead of in the port on the regulator itself? That was just there for a quick reference. The Racepak sensor is in the regulator that gauge will likely get moved or removed once we do the airpan.

Anyone care to guess what Al's favorite color is?... Looks great. Kevin That's easy. my favorite color is actually green. But my wife refuses to let me paint a racecar entirely in greens. We all worked on her to let us do it but alas she won yet again. She heard it was bad luck to have a green racecar years ago and always puts her foot down....But maybe we snuck some green on there

Did the orange and silver cuda go bye bye? Yes it has. Sold to a great guy in South Dakota to ad to his stable of racecars! Just not the right tool for the places we want to go next...

Everyone else, I appreciate the kind words. Wish it could get done faster but we are trying to make it the best car we can from the get go and contrary to what many think I aint rich. So it takes time. Not one is more anxious than me to get it done and out there but the end is close. It will getting its final cut and buff here soon, then has some picture shoot time scheduled and we will post up pics of the finished car then.
