Looks like a fun project and it sounds like you have a very knowledgeable adviser on the build. I really admire the safety first attitude you have on the build, things always come out better when your priorities are correct...

Where the heck is Zimmerman, Mn at??? I've got some road trips coming up in Minnesota this spring, wondering if it was along the route. Be fun to stop by and see the car.

Anyway, good luck and have fun with your build.
