I have a 69 Datsun roadster that's been in the barn for 35 years that I've thought about doing the same thing with.

I love different cars. Sounds like a great idea. Get it going!
anyway at age 55. This will be my last race car I build. if I ever want another. I’m definitely going to buy it, way too much work.

Keith, I’m so impressed with your skills and work ethic on the roadster. Looking forward to seeing your ingenious approach to taking both cars to the track without buying a stacker.

Well….. that’s going to be tough, I do have a ramp truck and open trailer but not going to do that. With the cost of everything, I will only run one car at a time unless my Crew Chief Shaggy (he has a truck and enclosed trailer) decides he wants to haul one up for me. That’s totally up to him.


Believe it or not, I am painting today, put the base coat on yesterday, taped off the stripes this morning and just put the first coat of clear on. As of right now this thing is looking sharp.

Getting things done, how many times did I put the engine in and out? I know I moved it over at least an inch and a half

When we got to the cage we really wanted it to match the layback angle of the windshield we made it as close as possible. Getting close to certification time!
