Fred's 289 FIA build

[FRM]

Put ~100 miles on it with various trips and continuing with engine break in. Went to the bank and HomeDepot and parked next to large SUVs. Got a lot of interest.......and others who ignored me. Getting used to the various noises and a sense that they are normal, part of the car, and not of concern. So far only vibration type noises. The side pipes do vibrate a lot. I used a toggle for the turn signals and I have forgotten and been one of those kooks who leave their turn signal going once and a while. I'm trying to do better on that. It is so noisy the clicking sound is overwhelmed. Is very enjoyable and I'm pleased with it so far. Family comes for Thanksgiving and rides for everyone are in order. No touching the windshield and watch those side pipes will be the mantra. Oh.....and I pulled out of my street on one of the trips and as I came to the first stop light a black Cobra was 3 cars ahead. It looked very nice. They went straight and I turned right. Hopefully I'll find out who and will run across them again.
