    Great job. Congratulations. Is your trans cover done in suede? Looks good. Like the Ring Bro’s pieces as well.

    Looks great. Congratulations on a very nice build and moving it right along. I'm usually not a fan of diamond stitching in these cars. But that's just enough to look nice. There are some other brand replicas (cough...cough...) that go way overboard IMO. Like the carbon fiber dash too. Have fun with it!

    Got my license plate and registration today. Took my first "legal" drive too, probably only 3-4 miles though. My rear end is leaking where the passengers axle goes in, so I'll need to fix that before i go any further...

    In GA it was pretty easy, I followed this. https://dor.georgia.gov/register-new...e-not-required

    It's registered as a 1965 Factory Five Roadster.

    Added a rear and side panels wrapped in leftover ultrasuede to try to clean it up.
    The rear panel is removable, jumper cables and a tool bag are behind it.
    Fire extinguisher is mounted to the side panel.
