Actually riding inside the streamliner right now on route 40 at about 75 miles an hour. I wanted to test it was back here you know how much of a beating of the car just transporting it. Also I wanted to test the vents at the base of the windshield for pressurizing inside of the cabin. They work great.

 Sparky and the gang are going to really enjoy seeing this amazing streamliner. Its got to be a trip watching the expressions of people on the road when they see the car along the way. Were heading west {I would say flying out but some smart ass would say my arms would get tired LOL} see you guys in Pomona.  The 1946 roadster is already in Pomona sent from CONN the crew will bring it over to the Fairplex on Wednesday. :cheers:

GNRS has been a blast! One more day to go. It's been great to meet so many Landracing,com members. I can now put more faces with names. We get a ton of compliments about the paint. Most people think it is Carbinite Metal Coating..
Her are a couple of pics after things card down today.
