Cool deal that the fix was straight forward. With your work ethic, it should be ready for a magazine cover by the weekend.

I'm curious. What was the source of the noise in second gear?

It's actually going to be ready for a T shirt cover by Sunday. Lol. For our G Body cruise T shirts. GP403 is waiting on me to get it finished for the photo.

The chunked tooth on the reverse gear. He found a replacement on ebay

I just took my wife for her first ride in the Salon and she loved it. First time I've drove it in the dark

Ever think of converting the speedo gears so the km/hr cluster is accurate as MPH, so you have a true 140 mph speedo? Should be able to find a drive/driven gear combo that gives you the 1.6 ratio, and then just have an overlay sticker made up to cover the small MPH numbers... you know what I mean?

So the black floor plate bothered Bar50 so I painted it with my interior paint

Yesterday I cut out pieces of 1/2" sew foam and spray glued them to the seat back foam. The cover is tighter but still wrinkly from the seams. Going to try a heat gun and some rubbing to get rid of the wrinkles
