October 17, 1999 the engine has been installed and is ready to be turned over for the first time. The electronics in the car are not ready yet, but I have design and built a cardboard mock-up of the console. |

After a redesign of the console on the computer I e-mailed the plan to my friend who does sheet metal work, and he made a prototype of the console out of metal for a trial run. |
|
The gauges fit so well, I just may run the car with this prototype console installed. We are targeting the second Sunday of November for our first race with Project MSX. |
|
The Tachometer has to be mounted on the top of the console, so we can see it during the race. The ignition switch and crank switch is located at the upper right hand corner of the console. |

This project car never made it to the track. Multiple cracked heads from the turbo boost forced us to abandon this project for a different project car. Raced or not, it's always fun to work on a project car. |
