    About the time I got the buck finished for the sports car last March the shop got really busy with some big projects. I had to put in a lot of hours to stay caught up, so the sportscar ended up on hold. By the time my workload eased up I was burnt out and had no interest in working on it.
    So I took some time and built a Motorcycle project I had, that was a lot of fun, Ive never built A bike before and got me motivated to start the sports car again.
    Plus I got some help in the Shop, fellow HAMBER Dr. Tim Elwess

    Fantastic! I was just thinking about this project the other day. The shot with the 356 and the roadster in the background is awesome.

    Very cool Matt. Happy to see you back at it again. I recently took on another bike project and my roadster has got a little side lined. I should be assembling the evo motor this week. Dave Mackie from northern Cal did the heads and provided me with a 580 cam. I will be running a 48 ida with a scratch built intake with neg 4 legs and slammed in the back. Ill send you pics.
