Thanks all. I almost wasn't able to get registered today. I started off the day with a trip to the DOL to get a transit permit, which went pretty easily. Then called and got insurance all set up for the year. But then when I got back home and I started the car for a test drive, I noticed that I was leaking transmission fluid all over my garage. I found, a cut in my transmission loop:
So, cut off the other end of the hose:
And after two different auto stores, built a new transmission loop for myself
And then was finally off to the weight scale. The Goblin was dwarfed by all the trucks there. It's a good thing I went the shack first and asked about the process. If I had just followed the truck in front, I would have gotten a free car wash from wheel wash at the start of the scales!!
And back off to the DOL to get plates. Special shoutout to
@k.rollin and his recent post with his picture of his registration and plates. I showed that the clerk at the office, and they were able to replicate the registration in my profile. Saved a ton of time for them to figure out how to so this correctly as this was the first time they did anything like this at that specific office. And then off to drive without worries of the cops pulling me over.
And
@Ark :D don't worry, I'm "done" Still need to get the hood, side panels, windshield, painting the calipers, tuning the car, converting to a digital dash... the list doesn't end
At the end of the day, the kid's excitement, the adult's grins made it all worth it! And plus, I think I the drive convinced my friend to build his own Goblin this winter.
