Almost done!
I got this picture sent to me from a friend this morning. Car is down off the lift and Brian did a couple shakedown drives. Has just a couple more things to fix and I will finally be re-united with my car!!

Since October. And the dust just adds to the "sleaper" aspect of the car!

I got the information plates in the mail last night from Callaway! These were on the car originally but over the years they either fell off or were lost. They go on the side of the intercoolers.

100 HP easily and 3 lbs.... Those things are HEAVY. 1/8" aluminum plates. They are not decals but milled aluminum. Kind of cool but they should be when they cost $90 EACH..... And yes you read that right..... Those two plates cost more than a clutch for the car.

Based on that price structure, I'd never want to have to buy a similar plate for a Lambo.

Clutches are $180. Hell tranny rebuild was $1800. Cheap to own. I would hate to even look at a lamborghini part price list. I might pass out
