2012 GNRS MUSINGS

I'm sure that I'm not the only guy building a roadster who anxiously awaits pics from the Grand National Roadster Show. A quick trip to the HAMB will reveal that even though the show is still in progress, pictures are already being posted. So what is happening this year that could inform my build?
I thought you'd never ask.
Love this car. Its rake intrigues me. Is it sectioned or pie cut? I intend to find that out. 

Love the two-tone color and the chopped windshield. 

Love the wheel choice.

Check out the belly pan.

Nice tail lights and the bumper.

Dig the welded doors. I'm very temped to do the same on my roadster.

ROADSTER UPDATE

With the Model T's frame now built, it's time to make a tough decision. Do I move forward into phase two with the T, or divert the attention back to the roadster by getting its chassis into roller status? I'm torn. I know if I put the T on hold, it'll be years before its running. And if I start going back to the roadster, neither car will get done anytime soon. I'll post back once I decide.
