    One thing leads to another . . .

     



    When I took the car off the street to install A/C, I just kept finding more to do. I reworked and simplified the wiring, made the dash removable for better access, installed "prettier" stuff on the engine, modified the suspension and steering, The A/C is reasonably sorted out. I just need to get the car running again in order to make the final connections and have it filled with freon.





    I'm dumping the pre-bankruptcy Demon 750 and going to a Holley Street Avenger 670



    I'm still sorting the trans cooling problem, but I think it's solvable. My final issue is what the heck to do with this interior. That wooden "thing" that "he who shall not be named" installed to support an opening back window is 1-1/2" out of level from side to side. There are also not enough mounting points to attach the upholstery. My initial thought is to have the upholstery shop sort it out.



    After reviewing all my records, there was a little note on the bill of sale that indicated that this car was the prototype and floor display model. Likely the first one built before all (most?) of the problems were sorted out. It's also apparently the last one sold before the bankruptcy.
