Yea I spent a lot of time figuring out how to make the adapter for the tranny. I was afraid both bolt patterns will overlap too much, but they didn't

I don't know if we're still having the discussion about paint, but have you thought about painting the rear bumper yellow and leaving a black strip, the same size as the bottom of the side skirts, wrap the bottom of the rear bumper? And for the front bumper, paint it all yellow and leave the lip black. Keep the black hood and viola, still the bumble bee car!

Agreed. That would tie the whole car together.

Out in Jersey representing for the West Coast!

We really appreciate all of the kind words, compliments and even the constructive criticism

I will haggle Jeff to put up some videos of recent events so that we can all enjoy the sounds of a 20B bouncing off the rev limiter
