I haz a roller!

I have achieved rolling chassis status, aka a roller!

I don't have the proper wheels and tires yet so I 'borrowed' the autocross set that I use on my Miata.





Almost immediately after pushing the car outside for these pictures, it started to rain. So it went right back into the garage.

It's going back on jackstands tonight and I'm hoping to start running brake lines. Also I need the autocross tires for Sunday.
