It's waiting for my arrival at Sebring. It was buttoned up and completed late Monday and put right on the transporter Monday morning. So I never got to see it completely finished before it left
Can't wait to shake it down for test n tune on thurs

Just talked with SST, who is completing the project. They decided to put in the cool suit infrastructure, which I was tempted to add but held off, not wanting to make any build changes unless necessary. But I am glad they did.
We are also adding a base and 1 tear off windshield.
And get this - we are on budget!

In for a dime, in for a dollar I always say.
Think of it this way - the car is effectively new (8,500 street miles). For 0.41% of its cost, I get a fresh start at a good as new windshield when I need it.
Now, why wouldn't I do that?

Unlike a street car with glass coverage when the windshields get so pitted and cracked you don't just pay a $50 deductible and move on it's the full price and even used they ain't cheap...

I should have done a clearplex or tear off on my my HPDE cars. The windshields get so pitted and scratched and a replacement windshield is never as good as the factory installed.
