More exciting stuff. They started on my car last week (Chassis #20). It won't be long now.

I would of liked to. But in the interest of time, I'm having Elan do it (See above pic's, that is my chassis going together). My wife suggested having them build it. She must like spending time with me still 
. Plus, I just got done building a car.
There is something about a real racecar being built by a real racecar manufactuer.
I'm going to have plenty of time to play with it, while adding stuff to it (Lights, radio, etc).

I visited Elan this week and saw my Chassis. All I can say is WOW. The Elan/Deltawing facility is amazing. Such a cool place.
Here are some sneak peeks of my body getting wrapped in various stages (Sans numbers and sponsors, and not quite finished).
Also pictured is my chassis with motor/trans installed. It will be ready for pick up March 1st. It cant come soon enough.

Chad,
The car looks great! When will you be getting it? One my PRC friends has their NP01 and are awaiting updated uprights on all four corners. Elan seems to be real good about replacing parts that are of faulty design or made out of the wrong material. If he get the parts in time he plans on running it at Sears Point in a few weeks at the NASA event.
