    I wasn't sure about the white colour to begin with but with all the various splitters, vents & other trim pieces now in black, the overall look is great! In addition, it must have been a great relief when you corrected your over filling of the engine oil, such that the car no longers blows out tons of white smoke at start up. I have been following this project from the start & each episode is a must see for me. Keep up the great work & I really admire your hard work & commitment on this complicated build. 👍

    White was a great choice it's looking good. When you filled in that square camera hole with a patch piece and used panel bond to help secure it there's a better way, 'most of the time'. Use the same piece that you got the patch piece from and cut long thin sliver's, like welding rod size and use them to weld the pieces together. Just use some kind of heat source, not so much to warp the panel. By doing this your using all the same material for great strength and almost as strong as it was new.

Maybe that engine management system has an interlock in it to PREVENT any kind of engine damage.... You are DEFINITELY getting closer to the finished product!!!!!!👍👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

    I knew that smokin was a dry sump issue, the old "60s" BSA/ Triumph motorcycles were dry sump & would do that if they sat for a while without being run, oil back drains into crank area leaving tank dry on start up, no oil for pump & rod would find is way out the case through hole it made. At least you had enough (too much) oil so no starvation, thats a finicky machine you got there gotta be careful with it. Great job on that thing gonna give lots of enjoyment. Have fun with it but not too much, it will prob outrun the stopping abilty, just slide, so beeeee careful.
