Bummer. I'm in Indy and could use a hand/moral support while cleaning up wiring and general underbay cleaning.
Nobody should want to volunteer for that, though.

I'm here every day for work, but don't know of anyone close doing a challenge build.
I'll PM you my number though. Lunch is on me, if you have the time.

Plane gets in early Monday. I was going to run 120 miles North of LaFayette to a vendor shop and back down to the Hotel. Could change plans, Its only 65 miles LaF to Indy.

I'll probably give it more attention when it's above freezing. It's about 90% done - need cheap wheels & tires and tuning...all help welcome.
Wouldn't pass up an opportunity to have a Nelson look it over if the chance ever came up though. I've heard he knows something about V8 powered MGs

several of us have been to "the barn." it is truly an incredible place. i'm worried that andy's selliing out, though, now that he's got that fancy-schmancy concrete floor in the new building. i wonder if he's got Calvin removing all the blue M&M's yet.

It's worth the trip - the Nelson family is a bunch of fantastically wonderful nice people. When I went there they immediately made me feel like I was home. It's hard to vocalize how important it is to meet truly nice people in life.
