    (well there's still a pretty long punch list of niddley piddley details to iron out) But it starts, steers, runs and stops. Took me just a little over a year to get this far. Still need to get it to the trimmer for interior and need to get different tires, that will come in time... FINISHED-2.jpg FINISHED-4.jpg

    Looks like a really nice roadster. Good job! Is that a 2" or 3" chopped windshield?
