I have had the car on the road now for two years and it has been fun.
As these things are never really done I have decided to remove my clamshells and install some cycle wings for a change of pace.
I have added a few photos of the progress, the cycle wings need to be painted yet, I also made a cheap grill out of some wire shelving as well as new headlight mounts based on my clamshells mounts.

I currently have the transmission out as I am changing rear tailstock to eliminate the remote shifter.
The remote shifter works quite well, but confuses my Mrs with its straight line shift pattern.
Hopefully I will have the modified transmission in by the end of the month.
I have also decided to remove my rear end and swap the 3.73 gears out for 3.08's.
Need to make some wind wings as well as stone protectors for the rear wings.
So lots of little projects over this winter.
