    Update: So since I completed the Roadster this Spring I've been driving and enjoying it as much as i can. I drove out to Goodguys Columbus, about 400 miles one way, and didn't have any problems. Right now i have about 2800 miles on it. I recently made a wheel change and I'm liking the new look.

    I like to know where you got the grill shell emblem made.
    I think the pindrive wheels look great. Frank

    I see everyone using safety wire on the knockoffs and now you made these retainers. Do the knockoffs work loose driving or is it just an appearance thing? I walk around the car every time I get gas (about every 200 miles) and give them a wack with the lead hammer and have never found them loose yet. Just asking.

    I have a friend that runs the same type setup on his Cobra and if anything they get tighter as he drives. I figured it wouldn't hurt and it hides the the end of the hup nicely. They fit with just a couple of thousands of end play so after a long ride I can check them to see if they have play in them by hand and if they do I know the spiners have not backed of any.

    Hi all. Been awhile since I last posted ,have done anything interesting to the roadster up till now. Last week I was playing with a different windshield setup and fabricated one that I can easily remove and put back on the Rodwell windshield. 20201120_104544.jpeg 20201120_113118.jpeg 20201120_165252.jpeg 20201121_114232.jpeg 20201121_131632.jpeg 20201121_140230.jpeg 20201121_140236.jpeg 20201124_111753.jpeg 20201124_113202.jpeg 20201125_112930.jpeg 20201202_105101.jpeg 20201202_105418.jpeg 20201202_133302.jpeg 20201202_141556.jpeg 20201202_141611.jpeg 20201204_155506.jpeg 20201205_134727.jpeg 20201205_134735.jpeg 20201205_134521.jpeg 20201205_134719.jpeg 20201205_134556.jpeg 20201205_134719.jpeg

    That certainly is interesting. Beautiful job, as is the rest of the car.
