Nice!!

HHGT! Those look great! Would love to see a shot of you complete car!
Are the number stickers the only modification? Or do you have another theme similar to the Heritage? It looks amazing! Kind of retro like!! :thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup

Incidentally, I was worried about scratching the inside of the plastic inserts of the seat because the tassels most inner edges are a bit sharp. I tried to put them in with a piece of plastic baggy as a condom, but the plastic acted as a lubricant and they turned instead of fitting snuggly in place. Make sure you follow Shadowman's 12 & 3 o'clock positioning when you install and for what it's worth, some are more snug than others. Overall, I give them an honest 9 out of 10 and have no regrets.:thumbsup:thumbsup

Whipple, Cooltech Cooler, Bridgestone Scudderias and a new set of testicles:biggrin. The car is in many of the C&C Ford Irvine events. I'll see if I can find a link or you can google it.

"International shipment has arrived in the destination country"

Having negotiated its way past the border and out of Canada has to be a good thing!

The hot buttons' destination is Kendall's garage in CA. They have 5 days before we arrive in LAX and 8 before taking off to LAS.

Hey Wally, thanks for the pix and the PM! I really appreciate all of the TLC and the incredible attention to detail that you and Kendall always lavish on my gal.

Now, listen to this: As usual, I provided a long list of TO DOs to get my gal into shape for the Rally. I got so excited about the Whipple, Freeflyer boost gauge, Kip CF stuff, new shoes and all, that I completely forgot about mentioning the little shakes and rattles she's developed over the last year. Well, did I need to point it out? No!

I received a detailed update from Wally but below addresses those items I never even mentioned.

"One note : We noticed where some odd sounds or vibes may have been coming from:

The rear lower screen looked to have ben slightly bent from the diffuser rub. Back in position now, no harm was done. About a 10 second fix. Done

The left top clam vent is loose, looks like one of the plastic studs broke away. I think he can fix it with a thin piece of body panel tape. You will never see it and the vents are not warped. This is what I would do to get rid of any vibration. Kendall will talk to you about this easy fix.

Take care."

If any of you need to have anything done, I can't recommend Kendall & Wally more highly. :thumbsup

Love the look of the new caps against the Whipple! :banana:banana

Anyone else experiencing long delays in shipment? I ordered at least 3-4 weeks ago and have seen nothing?

My wife is getting sick of me coming home and asking if "The Buttons" came in.

I guess I'll dig up my online receipt and reach out to them?

If you can let me know what your online receipt looks like or who it came from, could you let me know. I got an email about it 3 weeks ago and I will never find it in my email list without knowing this.:willy

Thanks.:cheers

Kelvin,

Note the oil dip stick a source of rattle that at speed make a noise which is hard to pin-point. Just with your fingers tap it around and you may find your self saying ah hah that's the noise I have been hearing. Easy fix with a tighter o-ring.
