This is fantastic to see. I do not know how PCA CR is in AZ, but I hope you are building a G class car.

I have always wondered if these cars can be resurrected if the roof gets cut. No I know.

It is great to see this car saved. I read the story on pelican, this had to be a stressful ordeal. It looks like it worked out well though.

Default Nicely done!

Fabulous recovery!!

Did you use Getty Design bumpers? They are advising me that their 964 molds are really only good enough for a race car... but, they look good on KaiB's and Geoffrey's race cars... If that is what you have, I would appreciate your thoughts....
