I agree, if you are going to spend that much effort and time, make sure you a working on something you really like and you will want to drive when it’s done.

How many horsepower in that ol’ pick-up? A couple thousand? Did you turn high 6’s with street tires? The Professor wants to talk to you…

Want a project car? Why not look for an MG Midget or a small lightweight kit-car of your preference and try to make it electric? Or at least a high mpg car? Otherwise, I’d get an old Bug convertible. Anyway . . . you have my envy . . . good luck! Rocketman
