Nope, had the lights up and made them detail the buckets by hand. I will post a pic of it in a minute.

Hey Steve,
Our schedules keep us from talking. We need to all get together one day. Yes, I got a fuel line kit from Roger and changed all the fuel lines out. Fresh as a daisy now. This car met it's match. I don't give up for nothing. I still have more to go, but now it's nice to know I can enjoy driving it while doing so...

The ride height looks CORRECT to me. Lowering it could buy you some real trouble with NYC potholes. BAM! There goes your oil pan and/or alternator cassette. I would check it. 160 is about as low as I would go in the front for a street car. I run 170 rear, 165 front.

Bill,

A special thanks to you for everything. You are a true gentleman.

Guys, I must have called this poor thing 100 times and he would happily sit there on the phone with me for hours while we put our heads together and figured the cars problems out. Your the best Bill!

I live in the country Bill. I would never take this car to the city. No potholes up here, we make sure our tax dollars are put to good use. lol

Wow that looks great! I set aside the entire day tomorrow to get "Zaino'd" First time I'll be using it and I'm pretty psyched.
