I'm Legal!

I got a call from the painter last wednesday saying that the body was ready for pickup. I've spent some long nights the past week getting everything put together. Honestly I have had little desire to sleep since I got the body back. I have to say by far the the last week has been the funnest part of the build. My first start last year was exciting but nothing beats the first ride on open roads. Its so exciting to see the picture I had in my head come to life in my garage. I'm happy to say that the car is now completly assembled. Yesterday I was able to complete all safety and registration which turned out to be a very simple process. I'll be holding off graduation until I make one last purchase though... Got to save my pennies for this one or 4 depending on how you look at it .

Congrats. You stated it well by writing, "the picture in my head coming to life in the garage".

Hey where did you get the headlights? Those are nice!

I hope you don't mind but I "fixed" your license plate photo. Better safe than sorry?

Thanks for editing the plate #. I purchased the headlights off of ebay. If you do a search on ebay for P700 tripod headlights and you will find a bunch for pretty cheap.
