Since Dr. Mayf posted his car info (car looks GREAT mayf!), I thought I'd do
the same.  My Thunderpine runs, and drives(!).  For some background, this is a
Series II which I stuffed a 351W and T5 trans into, put in a narrowed Mustang
II (Fat Man) front end and narrowed 9", with an integrated 2 x 3 frame and
roll cage.  It's been running for a couple weeks and this morning we went
around the block (at 5:15 am).  No doors, trunk or hood so that's why it was
an early morning test.  There are "some issues" left (obviously) but at least
I drove it...  yippee!

I don't have anywhere to post pictures, but I'll take some and share if anyone
cares.
