Hi Lane, the car looks amazing. Do you have an ETA for completion? It looks like it's getting close? I assume that is a mock engine in place? I noticed the rusty crank pully. I am envious as heck.

ETA is sometime before Carlisle, but I know Charlie Victor (COVID-19) threw a wrench into Carey's schedule. We both still think it'll be ready, but I am trying to be realistic. Yes, that engine is a mock-up.

@Chris Howard - This started as a mold splashed off of one of Carey's real 356s, I believe. Chuck then lengthened the wheelbase and widened the rear track by 2" each. You cannot tell unless it's parked right next to a real one, and it's tough even then. Chuck is a magician.

No bumpers on mine as I'm doing a mild outlaw. Carey doesn't yet offer a version of the valence as an option, but I'm sure somebody will a$k him to do some at some point.
