Update

Alright, so a lot has happened since the last post. We've been working on the car for 5-12 hours every night after work so I haven't had much time to update. We finally found all of our parts and recieved our last shipment about 2 months ago. Since then, we've:

• Installed the suspension after a little "customizing"
• Plumbed the fuel and hydraulics
• Rebuilt and installed the original brakes
  
• Nearly finished the electrical system including gauges and lights
  
• Installed the engine and transmission
• Installed a seat
  
• Painted and the car and added decals designed by Carl Bean-Larson

It's been a crazy couple of months and it looks like we may make our deadline after all. The car looks absolutely gorgeous. I posted a photo here, but to see more go to:

Suspension Sponsor!

International Auto Parts recently shipped us a set of sport shocks and springs for a Fiat 124 Sedan. A few modifications and they fit great. They should make a real difference on the track.
The guys at international were incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. They showed major enthusiasm for the project and for low-buck racing. For anything Italian, I'd shop International first.
