Great build. Impressed with your problem-solving solutions.

I'm not in California. Any concerns with smog inspections when the engine is older than the chassis? Or are 35 year-olds exempt?

Must be that He is just a re-seller, not the manufacturer?

Porsche couldn't call their 1965 type 901 because Peugeot had trademark on three digit identification with a zero for the middle digit.

Is that why Ferrari 308 is so expensive? Royalties on the "0".....

I had the same problem selling some NOS NGK spark plugs with "Nissan" in the eBay auction title.

Hey. Great car. Have fun and enjoy your project. It seems that without the transmission cooler, the cooling system is sort of minimal. Like: purpose built for run long enough to complete a quarter-miler pass.

Is that remote water pump adequate for road driving?

I heard about an electrical solution to (this on a '50s custom car). They hid a 9V battery connector in the car's grille, wired in parallel to the driver's door solenoid.

As long as the bad guys didn't know what it was for..... and you can get hands on a 9V battery, it was enough to open the door with a dead battery - or even no battery.

Still it would be a good idea to have a mechanical solution.

Why is it "almost" finished, you ask?

Well, we realized that a failure of the battery cutoff means there's no way to get into the car (assuming it was locked) and that would be kinda dire, so we need a secret/hidden, external manual rear hatch release as a last chance option. We already have an interior cable release for the hatch and I'd like to maintain it's functionality as well, so it could get tricky, we'll see.
