Two down, two to go.

The front rims are done, now the back. Also the replacement studs are finished for the gearbox plate.

Starter Motor

The starter motor was among missing items when I purchased the car. Figured no big deal, it's a Chevy. Sent a email to the group(fellow Lola restorers)and the response was not good. Reinhold sent a photo of his starter(Lola T190) and the message, you better start looking, your not finding this at a store. And he was right, it uses a reduction gear and works off a smaller flywheel. Immediately I called Chuck Haines at Can-Am cars, yes he had one left. Phew, that was close. I think this is the first time it's been apart. Working on the rest of the missing parts list now. The first race comes in June at Mid-Ohio.

One down, three to go

As with everything else on the car, the more you do the faster you get. Should have all done by mid-March.

Gear box plate

I have always had the suspicion that the gearbox was never used on this car. The serial # was way to early for the year of the car. On the early Lola's they used a plate that attaches to the gearbox cover. When I placed the plate on the cover the studs where to short to attach the nuts. Will have to make up some new studs, no big deal.

A little more

Now have most of the right and left side done.

Wheels

All it takes is a lot of elbow grease. I'll tackle one a week. The centers where blue, found that Ford engine block paint to be the closest color "Old Ford Blue".

Windshield

Eric out on the West coast sent me a windshield off a Lola T192. Now I can send a very good example to the shop to copy and make a new one for me. Should be ready in 3 to 6 weeks.

And a little bit more.

A few more parts connected.

More right rear

Trying to stay ahead on parts I need, but it's going together with no big problems. As always, the left side will go together a lot quicker.
