Note how clean the underside is - That's just the way Jeff keeps his cars.



Jeff is giving HRE #2000 the 'once-over' before I get the car.



Now clutch, pressure plate, face flywheel, clean, polish & detail.



Thanks pal. I can't wait to get the car. Jim



If you ever need paint or body work Jeff is the only guy I trust! Please call him for all your paint & polish needs.















Note exhaust cut-out

There was an issue with the clutch that was just installed.



There was a problem with the disc. It chattered & only part of the disc was making contact.



HRE #2000 is @ Stillwater Motors now - Everything including the flywheel will be replaced with GMHP heavy duty parts.



I will be testing it out on the Power Tour.

Jeff is on his way to Atlanta to pick up HRE 2000 & take it to his shop in Stoughton, WI.



Vengeance had the car 2 months & didn't look at it so it's on the way back to Wisconsin.



2 months is just too long!



Thanks Jeff.
