All the kudos should go to Eric, I just mentor the project... :wink:

We are very fortunate to have a group that works really well together, have a clear vision of what works, and what doesn't, and lots of experience. Eric is creating the vision of his ultimate roadster and it has been a pleasure to help him realize his dream. He has worked really hard for Spriso Motorsports and now it is time to pay him back for all his efforts... (I just wish my roadster was this cool!)

Are you hiring? It would sure beat current job. I am not sure that the wife would want to quit her job, and it would be a heck of a commute for me. But I can dream.

Heck, I'd work for free if I could. The pay is in the learning.

I would too, in a heartbeat! Unfortunately, I don't think the wife would be too happy with the lack of bread coming in. Ohhh to be young and living in my parents house........or not.

The car is up and running over the weekend. We were able to put about 175 miles on it and it works amazing. Still breaking the engine in as it is afresh rebuild so trying to take it easy. The whole package is working really well and will make for a great summer of driving. I will be planning on attending Shasta next week so some people will get the chance to see it in person. For everyone else I will be posting some photos in the next week after I finish it up.

I just cant thank the people around me enough.

A quick list of thanks to people that really made this happen.
The entire Spreadbury family, Mike Braaten, Dave Jolliff, David Barwick, and finally Kara Burbach.

I tried that, the picture got smaller, my computer chair hit the coffee table and I couldn't reach the mouse anymore. Then I figured it out, nice pictured, even nicer car.

Couldn't agree more! Extremely nice! I suspect it probably pulls a little harder than my stock 1600. :wink:

I know I am really late to this conversation, but what type of hard top is that? Looks awesome and I would love to start figuring out how much I have to spend. :)
Dreaming of the day when I can drive my '69 Roadster with a SR20DET motor purring beneath the body. :)
