Awesome Greg! That looks great with those stainless exhaust sneaking out, and the steel wheels. Can't wait to see her in paint!

Took it for a spin to get used to driving it, got rubber when taking off, it's touchy on the throttle for a moment before I "got my shift back"! A bit less noise out of it since the exhaust runs all the way to the back now. Really runs strong, really smooth at speed. Good thing I don't have the new rubber and the NOS steelies on it yet... that's after paint!

For whatever reason Greg, that car always ran super strong. Can't wait to see it wearing the tuxedo again soon!

Well, working on making sure that it's back in its Tuxedo!! I still have work to do on the interior but it runs and is a solid car which is the most important.

Just working out the bodyshop stuff now.
