Absolutely amazing build. Great attention to detail. You have set the bar to a new height. Do not worry about your English. It is much better than my Spanish.
Keep us updated on the build. You should be very proud! Simply amazing.

I have another one of those on my backyard of you want it. Tire only. No rim. Prolly 40 years old tho!
 
Before and after!!


I'm confused. Which is the before and which is the after pic? You should label more clearly! :flipoff2:

Nice job on the engine, and the entire vehicle.

Looks like a lot of fun times ahead for you.

Best,
