Not mine... a friends car, but had to share the photos. Looks amazing! Enjoy. I will ask for more and post them when I get them.

Wow!

Can't see the driver's side; is the vacuum booster remotely located? Those two aluminum bottles on the firewall - coolant overflow and ? Remote oiling?

Looks too pretty to race!

I bet the booster was eliminated since the Tilton pedals have the master cylinders attached. Sorta like the setup on my hateful X19.
