Just a wee little mini-update here-
The last couple required parts have arrived and been istalled. All I need now is a decent day when Amy and I are both off work, so I can film the reveal video.
The Weasel is 100% complete and is a riot to drive.
The forecast says Saturday is supposed to be fairly good, so we're looking at Saturday evening video.

You never mentioned it, but what for fuel is used for the flamethrower? You gotta do a vid on it!
Gasoline. The NOS tank is the fuel tank for the flamethrower. I tried really hard to find a tank that I could hide under the hood- no luck. So, I figured the next best bet was to disguise it as something else. So, I fabbed the tank out of a disposable propane cylinder, painted it blue, and ordered a NOS sticker online.
