[Tim-Spruill]

I have my first complete prototype almost finished. I just have to tweak the lock clip and glue the "captivator ring" into place. It is not cosmetically perfect but will function correctly for testing purposes. I am still trying to get the exact procedure down on this last casting. The handle has to be exactly perfect. It is the part everyone will see. The last thing I want is for people to look at someones car and say "you must have one of those reproduction caps...."

Everything is ready to go. I have all the molds, supplies for all the clips, and the springs. As long as my test units continue to be functional but ugly I will send them to various people to give a trial run. Once I have something that looks great I will send them to more important people and possibly open up for sales...

It is so close I can taste it! Besides I am tired of driving the spider while the milano just sits and collects dust! It is time to wake up the old beast and go get some gas!!
