Rich You mean the baby one? One of Wray's students is working on it, he had never shaped metal in his life. It's amazing what you can learn by taking his 4 day class. Attached thumbnail(s)

Just an update, after 7 years the 550 build is now in the shape of a car. Hoping to get back on the 904 in the coming months.

There isn't any 914 in this car, that's the other build. This one had half a chassis from a 356C, and the rest an old repro 550 frame. The motor is a 912 motor that Vic Skirmants build for me.
