JForand - Atlanta Build

[jforand]

Glad you enjoyed it. I hope to keep it going. Got those front square tubes tacked in last night and I moved the transmission off the operating table tonight to make room for a nice clean engine tear down and rebuild.

Good to know you’re close. It seems a lot of these guys aren’t in the SE. I was just thinking the other day that I might forgo all the DOT stuff just to make this thing quicker and simpler to the end. We’ll see how this progresses. I just found Sgt. Gator’s halo design and really like it. Going to need to make a decision to pull the trigger on that or pass relatively soon.

I did my inspection in NY (was fairly tough) and had a LOT of moments of "I should just give up on the legality part". Really glad I didn't now, even if just from a test-and-tune perspective pre-track day. The occasional drive to work on a nice day is a bonus, though it's rare

I totally agree with you. How can you get the thing running well enough to even buy track time if you can't put it on the street? I also think that if and when the eventual sell of the vehicle comes along it should squelch some fears if you have a tag on it. I might lean on you for motivation to stay the course when the going gets rough
