I wasn't there at the time, but Mark Carlyle helped to wrap the car and said he took pics. I'll see if I can get them.

The car will be at the cage shop for about another month, so I don't expect much more to happen until then. In the meantime, IPS will finish putting the engine (heads are done) and tranny together. But, we don't have the Hogan intake manifold yet. That should arrive in April too.

However, I did get my new steering wheel. It's the stock wheel, but with DSV Customs (***********) nice leather and stitching.

Car is still at the chassis shop for the cage. It's supposed to be back in about 2 weeks.

I am sending the axles for my 9" kit to DSS. They offered to upgrade them to the better races. They are supposed to be back before the car is back.

When mid April hits, it should start moving along quickly. All the parts they can anticipate needing are ready to go in the car. We just need a car.

It's just been rewrapped in much nicer leather.

I have one from ACE that is a bit thicker and flat on the bottom. But, I wanted to go back to the stock look.
