So, it’s pretty disappointing there were SO many problems with the car after all this time, effort, and supposed quality control.
It does look fantastic. |

Driveline - yes. Not new engine and trans and such. Just the driveline itself.
It is like a new car - EVERYTHING was redone. Don (the fella I who owns the shop) and I went over the list - item by item. He did not have any contrary comments on anything I had. In fact, he had 6 or 7 items of his own that I put in (that I would not have picked up). All told - it is a work in progress... and I think the next visit will be much more successful.

Kevin hasn't been on site in many months. Hope he is well, and that this project is wrapping up
