As promised here are the sunny day bueauty pics of the finished Roadster while at the DMV.
Speaking of the DMV.....I call the state DMV office to get the inside skinny from the head shed. I sometimes take issue with counter beuracrats who's sole aim is in gaurding their rice bowl rather that helping you out. However todays visit went very smoothly. I had a new Oregon VIN# in 10 minutes. The registration was a bit dicey though. In Oregon they have "special" plates for cars older than 25 years. They have a one time fee then they're good forever. All three of my classic hot rods have them. At first she did not want to give them to me because the car was "manufactured" in 2024 even though it was a 1965 "replica". I told her it would be impossible to pass DEQ with an engine from the 60's. She got my point and issued the "special" plates. So a half hour from walking in the door I had my VIN, title, registration and plates all for $234.

Heres the pic's enjoy!
