    It runs, quite well.
    Just installed a new battery and wheel studs.

    I would drive it daily but it does not have a catalytic converter so I don't think it will pass emissions in Austin. I've been trying to get a sticker for it.

    Only has door cards and dash as far as the interior.

    Pretty much a race car without a full cage.

    I'll post the video this weekend.

    That's nice. Wow. Does the engine have idle problems or problems staying on with the port and polish.
