It's been a long time since updating progress .. I have new loops welded over the driveshaft. This makes for a stable platform for the ebrake .. I have a new MGB Lucas windshield wiper motor .. and have figured out how to use the early '70s Toyota WSWiper switch to work with it. Our shop has a new attachment for aluminum welding so we've touched up the aluminum rocker arms in the front suspension. I modified the fuel union for the upside down fuel tank setup. Next is to weld up a custom aluminum fuel tank. Still thinking about disk brakes in the rear ..to replace the drums .. and maybe a LSD. Rob

Nice pics! Looks like a blast! "The west is the best!" Rob

Gotta update that speedometer! Rob

It was my rear view mirror image as we drove east from Monument Valley towards Moab! Rob

Hi Winston: I enjoyed looking over your blog. I look forward to seeing how you fill your space with the ongoing list of pet projects! I too have a Grant Signature Series wheel .. (check out the Grant Security System which allows me to remove my wheel ..) I will have to check out Suzuki parts at the junkyard ... for that tiny overflow coolant tank .. I look forward to seeing what you do with carbon fibre! Rob

A racing van with seating for four people! They did a hack job on the van to make it wider and longer .. Rob

Great video! Great Lady! Rob

:rofl: Rob

I've been looking for this one ..

ASPnet ... Rob

This place is getting too crowded for me ... Rob

The best pic I've seen is of Orange alone with twisties before and after ... on the ToTD. Then there's the pic of the yellow car in the yellow wildflowers. The woman's head amongst the headlights is .. just obscenely weird! Rob

I purchased some replacement Ball Joint Dust Covers from this company .. and I am very impressed with the product for its quality and fit. http://www.energysuspensionparts.com Rob Mitchell

Bump .. to show that I have updated my list of Rotus parts above. Rob Mitchell

I appreciate the effort .. but I don't like the banner .. I like pics of real cars .. which I think gives visitors a better feeling about what the Se7en experience is about. The black on black frog eye doesn't stand out .. When I saw all the black, I immediately switched to a warmer blue setup ,.. which now makes it very difficult to discriminate an imbedded web link. Rob

It's operational .. just up on all fours until suspension redone, paint applied and a new aluminum fuel tank is fabricated. Rob

The Classic Motorsports Mitty gathering will happen at Road Atlanta May 2-4. www.roadatlanta.com www.grmspeedfest.com How many members can we get to go?? 20 members and we get to do a parade circuit! Rob

Bad .. but fixable .. Rob

I had a great time at the GaTech car show .. lot's of great cars ! Old new .. electric .. Paul Whittle made it again ! Everyone who saw his Stalker kept saying, "Is that a GM V6 3.4l?" Andrew's frame IS on the ground with four wheels, IRS, bare motor, tranny, steering and ebrake! It looks great! I had a stupid grin on my face just looking at his Locost accomplishments. (dumbest comment: "It won't go anywhere without a driveshaft.") There was an Aerial Atom .. which looks cool. I talked with two guys about MegaSquirt EFI control .. Bumped into William .. with his daughter Lucy .. All this got me even more excited about getting my car painted and back running soon! Rob

Man .. no one will want to pull out in front of you at four way stops ! :thumbs: Rob

Goin' to the GaTech car show .. Rumor is that eVox Locost is on wheels! :7frog: Rob
