Car has been reliable again now that I started driving it more (had battery issues when you only start it once a month), pick up is a little slower with the big wheels. But its still fun, rubs a little once in a while still, but way less than the old set up. I've also found that putting gas in it depends on the rubber flap they have on the pump. It only "works" if the flap is is smaller, and you have to hold the pump handle sort of sideways (60 degrees?) to miss the taillight, and get the flow I also pump a little slower. Not unbearable, just precautions to not mess up. it was worth it.
So, I've been driving the car to car shows with a "for sale" sign in it. Need the money to pay for next year's project.
I have had a lot of compliments, but selling a car at a car show, where almost everyone has a car already, is nearly impossible.
