At the rear of the car is an emergency shut off that runs through the tail light. In the trunk is the enclosed battery and its related wiring to switches inside the car. The body has a 2000 dodge neon bronze paint that is maintained by Arlington Auto Body of Cranston, RI. I got the car already painted and had to have some minor repairs done to a rear quarter panel because someone leaned up against it and put an ass print in it. I also had the engine compartment painted while the engine was out last year. Fiberglass front bumper and hinged hood lighten the car.

I did all of the work myself except for the above mentioned and Simplex Engine Rebuilding of Providence, RI who did the machine work on the engine. Yes, I built my transmission, too. I am a mechanic of 32 years.



I drive this car but with limitations. In steady or heavy rain, the slicks pose a handling problem but a little rain doesn't stop me and also the Heater; I don't have one so I can't drive it on good cold winter days. But I may be tempted on a somewhat mild winter day. I built my car to drive, race, and show! A trailer queen it is not, but it is
