Thanks a lot! I'm happy that it's running again although it still is far from finished. Now I have a lot to do with the electrics as only a couple of gauges work while the rest of them is plain dead. Also the car is in a desperate need of suspension geometry adjustment and the engine has problems burning the fuel from carbs resulting in cutting off some cylinders on WOT. It's a normal thing though as every car needs the final setup and adjustments. I will update with interior shots once it's all put back together. Now it's full of cables and bare metal. On a driving experience - I was just doing some test runs but after something like 60 miles it gave me some idea of what to expect. It is uncomparable to modern cars like the S2K. The biggest difference is how much strenght it requires to just turn or brake but the overall expecience is rather pleasant - it feels like you deal with a mechanical and therefore pure machine. It sure gives some satisfaction. I wonder if I'll be able to drive it fast as my confidence is pretty much lacking now
