It's been a while without any updates... progress slowed quite a bit after MCACN. Cabin fever set in kind of early this winter, and we got lazy.

Now we're back on it, and getting very close to paint.

The hood was kind of a mess. We should have looked for a better one, but I was able to get it beat into submission. It's a big un-braced panel that you can see the bottom side of when open. My metal-work skills aren't that good, but I think it's going to look pretty decent... good enough for a High School kid.

The new "smoothie" front bumper was a Christmas gift from me.
