Lawson's 818C

  • Small update, but really only fairly small things left on the build with the exception of bodywork. Drove the car back to Atlanta for the next few weeks. Attended a big monthly car show called Caffeine and Octane. Had to park in the boonies of the parking lot because I left from 1.5hrs away and didn’t get there before 7 to make the “main” lot. Still got quite a few people asking about it as I came/left. I think it intrigues people because they generally have no idea what it is.
  • Bug fixes
    • Hopefully fixed the leaky gas filler neck.
    • Changed the wiper sweep to not hit the hood.
    • Fixed the passenger door. Had two issues there, the lock mechanism needed to be adjusted to not interfere with the interior door release. The interior door handle cable was also getting caught by the window regulator which was bad so I fixed that as well.
    • Cut a section of the rear driver’s wheel well out so I could adjust it higher so it doesn’t rub. I need to clean this up a bit but it seems my fix is working.
  • Little improvements
    • Cupholder installed
    • e-brake handle boot installed
    • Dashcam via my head unit and usb camera is setup.  Can also do track footage with it.

  • Caffeine and Octane


  • Super early 6am departure
