True. It was washed and clean when I took it to the tracks. But it's been sitting in the garage ever since.

And I got more to strip. The tar will be out once my lazy ass just gets to it. And the windows will be replaced with plexi glass. And somewhere down the road I plan on getting parts fo the body made of lighter material.
