Is itFlorence, Brunelleshis Dome ?

That's it!

That is an interesting building!
One of the books I have of Brunelleschi has photos of wild stairways and passageways between the outer and inner domes.
He also is noted for introducing the overdrive transmission and changeable gears for the pulley system used, borrowed from clockmaking.

Not much of an update, but I am getting back out into the garage. Hopefully I can get my garage ac installed soon so that I don't melt!

I was able to get the battery positive fuses setup and will go battery shopping this weekend.

I also have some newer Charger/Challenger emblems that I will play with placement. The hood looks a bit bare.

I like the fuse setup but the blue highlight for the emblems needs to go...

Let it soak up some sun this afternoon.

I love that 72 stripe

Those wheels with that stripe is a great combo.

after fifteen or so weeks, my Vintage Audio radio showed up! All new radio, digital internals, Bluetooth, etc. I went for the 70-71 model so that I could get the chrome buttons. Excited to have a reasonable stereo while discretely looking bone stock.

I was also able to treat the garage to air conditioning. Much needed!

I've used that Vintage Radio that looks stock and I really like it. Great stock look with some modern features. You will really like it.

The air-conditioning will be nice getting in the summer now .

Goody - is that radio a 100% new unit or a conversion of a core you provided?

Ran it a little more today as I now have a functioning cooling system and power steering system. I was able to work out a few good tweaks in the tune, getting it to start cleaner and dial in the IAC. It could drive if I put wheels on it, I am waiting for my exhaust to arrive and I need to dial in the pinion angle a tad before getting too crazy
