That's a really cool El C. Always loved those things. Had a cousin that raced one when I was a kid in the mid 60's. She and her husband won a ton of trophy's with that car.

I dig the refridgerator white. Seems everyone goes for "screaming colors", I prefer plain and simple. I like your approach as well. Put a simple drivetrain together to sort the car out. Gives you the opportunity to relearn the ropes.

To me there's a good lesson here that younger racers often miss. Build the car first, learn what it does. Then start to concentrate on the drivetrain.

Good luck with this build. Hope to see it at the track someday.
