some new badges arrived today. I'm going to start sanding the primed panels tonight and I'm sure they will suck as much as the panels before did.

Yes M44 on twin 45's. I 'm hoping it goes on the dyno this weekend. I will keep it as long as a have a place to store it.

With any luck it will be at its first hillclimb on the 27th of this month.
