My final comment on Bradley's. 

ALL Bradley GTE's* were factory production only!

Many GTE's have lost their electric motor and batteries as they were fairly crude by todays standards, and VW engines were cheaper than upgrades.

The GTE version also has more room in the "Engine/Motor" compartment AND a larger front hood which can be used to identify them.

All but one were Bradley II's, and you might get any GT-II really cheap if the unobtainium windshield is broken.

As for my build, yah, still going to grab the Fiero, and the Bradley, but the idea of a challenge build is probably moot due to cross-country trip expen$e.

Unless someone wants to take it over and let me make a few quick bucks, or a closer venue is added to the schedule.

*Bradley GTE, (Bradley GT Electric) was one of the first "Production" U.S. made electric cars of the 20th century. I've read that about 300 should be out there.

Damn, Paul. You ever gonna hang up the keyboard and build a car, or have you just resigned to being the proverbial Nancy Pelosi of the Challenge world? <kisses>

In reply to poopshovel again :

Where you been the last few years?? 

In reply to poopshovel again :

Tom asked us to read them. This was the place to give feedback. 

Weren't you the guy who said you screwed the Concours this year because you hadn’t read the rules and didn’t realize they had changed? 

Gotta go... working on my Challenge car!

EATIN Bob Costas & KICKIN ASS. Says it right on the car!

Hypothetical question. Hot rods come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, the rule about new tires.

This:

Its Challenge priced, remove and sell the air ride to get money to fix trans, springs are cheap. The tires (6 of them) are the question.

In reply to Bent-Valve :

4 “free” tires. That’s it. 

In reply to Bent-Valve :

That's begging for 15x12s on the rear with 315s.

I'm locking this thread to focus discussion on the $2000 Challenge Rules Finalization Thread.
