Peter, Kent, and Rick,

Thank-you so much for all this wonderful information, photos, and suggestions you've given me. I am ingesting it all and it is helping me "backwards engineer" the 166.

I'm going to be in Milan in November, and I hope to meet Andersoli's son and ask him direct questions about the construction technique of the car. Until then, your expert guidance and experience serves to keep the project moving along.

I began to shape the nose this weekend, and, predictably, worked myself into some corners. Getting out of those corners is where the real learning begins, and I am doing that.

Mark Savory has BLESSED me with many construction photos, but Kent, your photos are also very helpful. Can you post others? I've also carefully reviewed your Ferrari rebuild section in the Tim Barton books and learned a lot from those.

THANK-YOU all. I am grateful, I am needful, I am moving forward thanks to you.
