Default Merlin is finished!!

I thought we would never get to this point, but finally - the car is done. It's over at the engine shop right now for the final tune & oil change. As soon as Chris is done, we take her out for the maiden voyage. YEAH!!!

Now it's time to hit the NCRS meetings and get that Top Flight award you wanted so much! ;)

Congrats! The car looks awesome! What a mean machine! :cheers:

Way to go Steve! It looks great! :yesnod: Actually I like those blowers sticking thru the hood. It has that sort-of street rod/hot rod roadster look.----Only it'd look better with me behind the wheel. :lol:
