RUFUS PASSED SMOG! I took him to the referee station and enough readiness codes were set that it passed without a waiver! Now to register.

A little more Rufus news... the Ruf CTR rear bumper came in today, along with a Ruf aluminum foot rest (to go with the other pedals). Also, the black airbag came in today (swapped my gray one with a fellow Rennlister). I called the trucking company, and they said they'd be sending me a check on Friday.
So... it looks like Rufus is ready for the body shop. I have to figure out how to transport two Ruf bumpers in something (we only have cars... no SUVs or trucks). Maybe I can drop the top on the Cobra and tie them to the roll bar. But it now looks like Waldo will be here for a couple of weeks before the buyer will be able to come down. This will give me a chance for some "side-by-side" comparisons (after the new turbos on waldo are broken in), so I may just wait until waldo is picked up before I take Rufus in. Plus some cool comparo photos. I hope the Ruf a-piller fairings come in soon.
