    We'll have to see how things work out between GM and Mongoose. Personally, I think GM should be proud of them because they are they are so dedicated to building good cars at affordable prices. Unlike some of the others building these cars, I have yet to find anyone with anything bad to say about...

    The car saw the sun for the first time since January today. I drove it around to the front of the shop for a picture: We still have to get the ECU and the cam/crank sensors coordinated properly, but we'll get that finished up Tuesday, so hopefully, it'll be heading to the house next weekend.

    There will be many more updates to the article, as I finish the final details on the car prior to driving it. We'll make a jig for the LS headers/sidepipes so they'll be available to anyone interested in a set for a Mongoose car. As most of you know, you can tweak or "refine" cars forever and...

    It's strange that Mecom (or GM) didn't allow Delmo to drive one of the cars at Nassau, if he was the one shaking it down for them. The only conversations i ever had with Delmo were in the pits between races. He was the original "man in black". My Father asked Delmo how safe the car was and he...

    Hi John, I have admired you car in pictures for years. I think it's the nicest Grand Sport replica I have ever seen. In fact, it's "look" what really sold me on the notion of doing a replica from the get-go. Once I get mine, there are a number of things that I will be...

    Thanks to all of you for the warm welcome. I hope I can become a positive contributor to the site. I received some more pictures late yesterday and I added several to the tail of the article on the car. These pics show the chassis before and after painting, the doors, the front of the car...

    I'm working on the instrument cluster right now. I bought some block ABS material, and the finish look very much like the OE combination. Gary (at Mongoose) needs the dash by next Monday, so I have to hustle on this end. They have fitted the carpet to the interior and they will begin assembling...
