Thanks for the compliments Jim, we are buried in snow around here; that's not normal for this area. I measured 26-30 inches in my driveway. One of my preferred tree (Magnolia) split from the weight of this heavy snow, I guess I got my work cut out for the rest of the day if we want to make it to work Monday, however, I also have a secret weapon for that one, it's called a "Skid Steer Loader"

Feel free to ask all of the questions you want, I'm not so sure that I can explain my madness; I do have a plan based on modern automotive principles. I found it a lot easier listening to people talk about existing problems and how they have or may solved them; 4 or 5 opinions are better than one as far problem solving goes and engineering.

Some of you guys are naturals just like the popular TV show "Chop, Cut, Rebuild". As far as car looks goes, I wanted to go a little modern-retro so I'm trying to incorporate some RV-8 touches such as the bulge hood, steering wheel and my wheel looks almost the same as the RV-8 BBS wheels (subject to change).

Hey Jacques,

With the limited space in the engine bay, any plans to stick a large screw or two small ones back in the battery box/boxes?

No way, that would take all of the fun (madness) away!
