I don't have the car at home yet as they are working on the punch list. The dash vents are on that list as Carey wanted to make sure his planned installation cleared my knees (it did). At present you cannot see anything inside the car unless you look under the dash (the controls are hidden there and worked by feel), but the vents will be visible at each corner. That's necessary for them to be effective. The plumbing is all in the frunk behind the gas tank.
Based on my last conversation with Carey the car should be finished and awaiting shipment, so I put out the welcome mat. 
Is it there yet???
Mike asked me to ride shotgun. Hehehe!
Haven't gotten an ETA and really don't know when it's coming but it has to be soon.
I need to take one more long drive after filling up the tank completely and see how the splash back valve and the reroute of the vent tube effect the fuel smell. It is non existent with 3/4 tank. Then I have to fabricate an adjustable pedal stop for the clutch pedal, as requested. Both of those things I should be able to wrap up today.
Supposed to arrive tomorrow, but I'm not the least bit excited. Nope, not me. Uh uh, not at all. Calm as can be. Yup. Cool as a cucumber.
Yeah, right.
@Lane Anderson I am hoping you have a few weeks of vacation time built up or better yet unlimited time off. We (I) expect pictures videos and a full download of the new suspension and driving experience in this beauty. Happy motoring my friend
I predict about 4 hours of sleep tonight...and not in a row! YAY!!!!!
I slept pretty well, no doubt aided by the two glasses of wine. But now it's 0630 and Dude, where's my car? He should be here by now, right? Right?
Just drive it on down here. You gotta' be somewhere, make it my driveway.

My wait was only 6 months and I can't even tell you how I felt when Mike pulled up. Enjoy the day Lane the wait is over!
Not quite yet. He’s supposed to be here around 7:00pm or so.
Not long now!
Is it there yet?
Anticipating ....https://youtu.be/0Wi8Fv0AJA4
Is it, is it, is it? 
I'm sure Lane will get right back to us after he finishes talking to that nice state trouper.
The deed is done!
Most excellent.
Congrats.
The wait has been well worth the result , ENJOY !
It couldn't be nicer. Congratulation, Lane!
I’ve been on this forum for about 3 years, feels like I just witnessed the birth of a child. Who’s got the cigars?
Looks natural in its new habitat. Congrats, Lane! Time for a ROAD TRIP!!!
Congratulations, Lane! Enjoy driving the bag off it—safely!

Sorry, a little late to the thread tonight, Lane.
With the time zone difference, you must be fast asleep by now.
Pleasant dreams.

Congrats Lane, looks awesome!!!

Yeah, it's very sensitive to lighting.
Hey Lane, I'm very happy you finally have possession of your new "baby".
Now the real battle begins with the SC DMV.

It's always something. Best of luck, friend.
Lane, again congrats and also I noted that from the order to finish line it took, from Sept 2019 to June 25-2021 not bad really for the first one out the gate and having to do all that R&D. Good on Carey.
Actually the deal was made in 2015 but the body and chassis weren’t ready for pick up until 2019. In the interim they engineered it and built the two prototypes.
Lane: That looks, even to the color, like the 356C coupe that Hot Rod Charlie up here picked up during the winter. He'll be restoring it to a mild outlaw (think Emory or Singer) in the same color with an oxblood interior, the same as what he drove back in the 1960's Great minds think alike!
Will wonders never cease? I walked into the DMV at 9:45 and walked out at 12:15 with a tag. Unbelievable!
That is great to hear Lane! Now please post thousands of pics and videos please.

Perfect, what a beauty
What is it registered as and did they examine the car?
