Worked on the car a good bit today. Got a fuse so I could check the headlights, all good. Messed up on the templates for the rear firewall so had to start fresh with the upper panels, made some headway on that (Yes I know... I need Cleco tools). Checking to see what we have to do to get both thr Jr Dragster and the Nova in the trailer. More tomorrow...

Very nice build. Very clean. If i may ask, what are the bars behind the fuel cell with the caps on them?

Just an observation but have you thought about making the rear brace more triangulated due to the distance the shoulder bolts are away from the cross bar, looks like the upper body could rotate if something unfortunate happened,
