TRT 0403 Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Great news! Finally got thru to the Tasca Mod Shop. Car is almost done and now waiting for the official SAI blessing--may be sometime early next month. Outstanding Blip. The end is finally in sight.................hey they don't want you to be able to claim it took a year!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blip Posted August 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Well, I guess I should be clear and say that I still don't expect to drive it until October. We have a few add-ons planned for it after all the Terlingua work/SAI certification is completed. And GT500-07, thanks, (wink-wink, nudge-nudge, bargie-bargie). ^_^ :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DutchBunny Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Congrats on the nearby delivery :happy feet: . Hope you can drive the Rabbit soon. I love to drive mine and get all the attention. I will take my bunny to Belgium this weekend. Astrid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blip Posted August 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Thanks Astrid--have fun, I can't wait to join in the driving fun. Got a photo taken a bit ago, before getting it's stripe, (door bumper guards have been removed since then too). The Razors are my favorite part of this photo. More photos soon...

Blip Posted August 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2009 Thanks all!!! :D Here's two, front end is looking good, still needs the lower grill. And a peek at the other end with the dual exhaust. (Okay, I do give up some of the cool factor over the side exit system, but probably have a bit more ground clearance.)

TRT 0403 Posted August 29, 2009 Report Share Posted August 29, 2009 And a peek at the other end with the dual exhaust. (Okay, I do give up some of the cool factor over the side exit system, but probably have a bit more ground clearance.) The ground clearance with the side exhaust can be a real pain. I've done some major scraping. It looks great either way!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blip Posted August 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2009 GREAT NEWS !! The smile on the car is smaller than your's will be driving it . Not so sure about that, it looks pretty big to me! :D (But kind of an evil grin...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doc scott Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 Looking great,add some magnesium blocks on your side exhaust so at night you sacrifice those and give a show. Have them on my KZ 1000 Police bike,its a hoot Doc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blip Posted September 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 New photos, but latest word is it might not get the SAI "blessing" until October. Now I'm not sure we'll have the "toothless pumpkin" home by Halloween. Striping and some graphics work ... It's a bit dusty, but should be all cleaned up for Tasca's show next weekend. Door guards are removed, but needs some elbow grease polishing work.... Just luv the tail end stripe look... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blip Posted September 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 :happy feet: Great looking Terlingua Blip! And, you got the wheels! Cool beans....why so long for SAI to approve? Thanks!!! Best guess is just arranging the travel time for a SAI rep, Tasca will have a lot of completed cars to approve by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
check6 Posted September 7, 2009 Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 She looks great! Other than the Terlingua Bunny Badge on the rear, it looks to be "done"! :happy feet: :happy feet: Are you waiting for the interior package too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blip Posted September 7, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 Yes on the interior too. Gary D is sending a set to Tasca. (Getting set with Grabber Orange inserts--silver bunnies on headrest.) Should be there in a week or two. Tasca said their installer needs just two days to do the seats.

check6 Posted September 7, 2009 Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 :happy feet: Cool, Gary is very quick in getting the interiors done and shipped out. I'll bet TASCA may have other Shelby's nearing completion that SAI is waiting on so they can certify more than one car per trip. Or, perhaps they come out once a month, or something like that. We are very excited for you and hope they get the car out to you soon. :happy feet: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teranfon Posted September 7, 2009 Report Share Posted September 7, 2009 It looks great Blip. I love the colour. As much as I like the side exhaust, the dual exiting from the rear really adds to the stance and rake of the car. Terry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
