Looks like a little progress has been made   :2thumbs:

Did your friend run out of "lame excuses" as you said or is he gonna stay after it now?  The Branson show in June is coming up pretty fast, y'know  :poke: :lol:

I won't be wronged, I wont be Insulted and I wont be laid a hand on. I don't do these things to others, and I require the same from them.

If you count time spent gathering parts, I've been working on mine since 2002 (even before owning the car), so I'm a fine one to talk, I know...

2002 ?

HAH !

Short timer !  :nana:

I bought this wreck back in 1995 and I've been slowly picking away at it ever since.

There's been just a few thousand times that I've wished I'd left the POS in Kentucky

where I found it. :brickwall:

But at this point, I may as well stick with it, huh?

Coming along great. How long has it been since you first started working on it until today?
This car was sold many years ago to somebody in Wisconsin. I now am retired and living in Florida.

:2thumbs: very similar to the wheels on my bee but i have 8 inch rims in front  . wide tires i the front , make the car feel more planted to the ground when you drive, more stable . i just changed the fronts on my  daytona  to a 225 60 from a 70 tire . definitely makes it feel more stable .

glad to see your daytona moving right along . Rene
