    That's funny. I hope so! I'll take that over its previous urban legend story:

    "Have you heard about that black Nomad sitting under a lean-to?"

    Probably 25 years of that bouncing around up here, this will be its redemption.

    Thanks guys. I was able to get the car off the rack today and take it for a spin. It is super fast and everything works perfectly. It just has a temporary wire job for now to work out any bugs. It will also get further altitude adjustments once everything settles and I can see where it really sits. For now, I'm super happy. Rolling down the road at 50mph and stomping on it, it just blows the tires off the car :D (well, *tire* for now, 9" posi is on the way)

    Anyway, here is a quick little video of it happily idling. More to come.

    Project BLOWMAD lives. First drive went perfectly.
