Shifter and emergency break are refitted

I installed the shifter and emergency brake this weekend. They were previously just sitting on the workbench painted. I also put the Waso shift lock back in its spot. The pan definitely needs a good cleaning, but I'll tackle that when we permanently attach the chassis to the pan.

Some recent trips

The garage is still cold as balls, so I haven't been able to spend much time working on the car since last November. That doesn't mean I've been sitting around though! I've been collecting parts, and I even managed to assemble the taillights and a few other bits and pieces.

While this might not be directly related to the bug, I wanted to share about some recent trips that gave me the chance to visit some incredible car museums. Last fall, I explored the Porsche and Mercedes museums in Stuttgart, Germany. Then, just a few days ago, I returned from Riga, Latvia, where I spent some time at the Riga Motor Museum. Here are some pictures from my adventures!
