I'm getting too old to appreciate and USE this vehicle as it is intended for. So. someone else who can still handle a car like this should own it. Has around 2.5k miles. Built by Scott at Brunton Auto. Have spent near $55k on it, asking $42k.

Boy, which Minehart do you know? I ordered XL020 (turnkey) on Feb 21 and received it Sept 4th in Oregon. And all installments were paid in advance. Wow! I like your journal and see you have those magic hands and gobs of energy. A-fib hit me a few years ago and pretty much lengthened or cancelled a lot of projects. That is why I ordered #20 turnkey because I wanted to use it before I died and I ordered in Feb so that I could use it in 2014. A promised 3-month build. As you can see it took 6-months I didn't get much use out of it in 14'. Looking at the many photos in the journal, I could best make out the hanger used to mount the front of the rearend on page 16 the fourth photo down. I hope you don't have the problem I had in that the hanger crack in half and ripped out as the torque the driveshaft delivers in combination with tire traction was apparently too much for the material Scott used. I advised him of the failure and he requested photos which I sent but have heard nothing back from him. You appear to be having a great time. Hope you enjoy the ride, after sorting, as much. ..................Ken XL#020

Hi, "slomove", new member here. I pretty much grew up in the L.A. basin (46-06). I moved from there because of my attitude change if I didn't get home by 1 P.M. due to the traffic. I was in the SE LA county/W Orange county area. I knew no matter where I moved I would lose the mild weather (even though the summer humidity has trippled in the last 15 years there). Here in Oregon, the tax struxture, RE values and scenery drew me. I was into old cars but do to the distance just to go anywhere (I'm rural) I have mow sold most of them and are now back into the sports type. That is why I've become interested in the 7 replicas.........Ken
