Power Tour is less than two weeks away and I made a minor modification to the car.......Had to make a "Panic" stop and it seems the bias between the front and rear brakes is out of sync....the fronts locked up and it seems the rears didn't do too much......Darn.....Time to scramble again.....I have all the trim parts....I just need to get them stripped and re-anodized.....and I'll probably order a repro bumper to use while the original is out for repair......the main damage is to the Grille filler panel and the fender..........Darn!!!
