Hello Jack, and thanks for your inputs. The idea of using a Hotchkiss setup for a Geo locost certainly makes sense. But I am already committed to doing a middy by moving the engine and drive train to the rear. And I have already accquired Miata spindles, hubs, and brakes for the front and a complete Miata rear end to use whatever I decide on for the rear. I wanted the front and rear brakes to match. It would be great if the Geo axles would match the Miata hub. Haven't reach that point yet.

A more traditional project, as you and Bicycle Bob are talking about here, could be in the future. My wife asked me today what I am going to do with the new MIG welder after I finish this project? My reply was, I guess I will just have to start a new project. You can imagine how that went over.

Becoming a snowbird in AZ sounds like a good idea. My late wife's sister and her husband (who are from Winnepeg) did that for years and loved it.

Sounds like you need a shop in both locations....wouldn't want you slacking off and enjoying yourself too much. We need you to keep up the good stuff.
