    Thanks Robin.

    My mistake with the Topolino was most unfortunate. The insurance people had to get the replacement nose from Switzerland and then get it modified to fit the car.

    The bucket is getting some wheelie bars to go with the bigger engine, and Im wondering if I need a Wild Willy style wing on top of the cage.

    But its really just a wild street car. The altered project will get the junkyard alky 477 BBC, a 671 and a 4 port Hilborn. And one of Robins T bodies that I just happen to have sitting around along with a tired turtledeck.

    That nostalgia racing bug bit hard!
