Cool Whip!

Back in 2008, a picked up a '90 with damaged barn doors for $500, from the original owner……it was named "Cool Whip" by her kids.
It sat in my hanger until Oct 2014 when I sold one of my 93LE and needed a daily.
Put a battery in it and it drove ok right out of storage.
I had the dreaded white peel so I threw some primer on it temporarily.
Of course had to have fun with it so it got the "Gulf Livery"

This past weekend I blew it apart and started to build what Cool Whip will become.
Heres a list of what it got on Memorial day 2015.

Light Flywheel
Cat delete resonator
Drilled 1.6 rotors, w/race pads

Next ill address the body and paint.
and drop the '02 NB2 lump in it when I can get a MS3 to breath life into it.
Stay tuned!

dirty girl. Is that a RB nose?

Yep, Racing Beat one.

Needs a brighter orange

Just temporary, I had some Atomic Orange on the shelf in the shop and well……………
It will be going back White before Miata's at Hallett.
I had suede flames on my 93LE for a while do to Shiner Bock. ;)

Very subtle. I like that!

Just scored a bored 10:1 performance rebuilt bottom and a fresh R&Red 2000 head shaved .02.
Squaretop and RB header to be added.
Still need to source a 90-93 Squirt.

While sitting in "CoolWhip" installing a set of RevLimiters "Warbird" gauges, my Bulldog alerts to the faint sound of radial engines.
Soon the B-29 "FIFI" comes right over Propwash and does a few touch and go's at AFW.
How ironic is that?
While its not uncommon to have warbirds roaring and smoking up Propwash, the timing was impeccable.
Four R-3350s made the perfect soundtrack.

Looking forward to running Cool Whip at Hallett again this weekend.
