Holy holes batman!!! By the looks of it though, Im guessing itr wasnt always a center steer by the looks of that huge hole where one of the gauges now is/was. I could be wrong though.

So how wet was the core in it? Looks like you got a lot done on it in a hurry.

All these pictures of original cores makes me soooooo sad that someone really did a number on mine with plywood. That was the worst ever.

So, on your comp Vector it looks like two short stringers aside the pad and of course, a core. Is that right?

Looking good :up: I envy your energy :mrgreen:

Btw, did you take the little one (Vamp?) home too?
