It's amazing how a little fresh paint will part the clouds of doubt and brighten every ones outlook, particularly with a race car on a time schedule. The car is painted "Pepper White", that's an old BMC Mini color that was brought back with the with the new Mini.
Now the mountain of parts can be bolted, screwed and welded on to produce a finished product. It will be a close call as to having the car ready for Chihuahua, but it won't be for lack of effort. It may be for lack of an engine if those parts don't show up this week, that's been a sore spot, and a lot of work to be done there.
The brakes are finished along with the front suspension. The shocks for the rear need to be resized, but that's an easy fix. The petal box is in along with the brake lines.
There's 15 days until the car needs to be on a trailer for Mexico, everyone involved is on task, it remains to be seen if there is enough time.
