Well it’s coming to a close. Couldn’t get to a dyno but Chris from LMS-EFI street tuned it today. Sounds amazing and pulls good. Has some misfiring issues at 5k that we need to sort but we didn’t have enough parts with us to do much. Loaded it back on the trailer and handed the keys to the new owner, my oldest son.

So pretty close to a year to the date, it’s on the road and in the hands of its new owner (my son). I haven’t driven it and for reasons I can’t explain I probably never will, but he says it’s a blast.

A few more running videos. Sounds amazing and it’s been decided it will never have a hood on it.

Love the build but the title confused me a little. Did the kid build the car or was this a build for your kid? Love all your work shown though, I wish I could do wiring like you!

It started as a project I purchased for myself and my 2 sons to work on. At the end, I ended up giving it to the oldest. Thanks for the kind words.
