Looking good Gabe, can't wait to see it finished.
Spent the weekend with some old friends i haven't seen since school, one of the lads was always a car nut and we got chatting, turns out his uncle is Brian Redman! We sat up watching vids of him racing, hearing about him testing the 917's, winning the Targa Florio, and of course driving the 935's...
There's a vid here of him driving a Lola T600 chasing down 935's at Mosport

This is so sweet, I am glad your doing this...I wish I could afford to do the same 
Are you going to still have the car registered to drive on the street? I would love to see this thing driving around on normal roads!
Keep up the awesome work!

I've never been so excited about a seat in my life... That thing is a work of art. Phase two of the car has me worked up than the first go around... Can't wait to see it fully dressed. Congrats.
