Default Cosmetic surgery pics... prior to major surgery

I thought I'd share some pics just in case it doesn't make it through the up-coming major surgery.

Cosmetic surgery:
New ducts, euro clear signals, headlight washers and bumperettes deleted
(please excuse the amateur photography... but that is what it is - amateur)

Surgery was a success!

Thanks!
Heya Scott and Jeff

Gasser, major surgery will be:
-HD clutch with LWF
-Top end refresh
-Misc other maint. items while it is out
I am going to do the 2WD conversion but will probably do that as a separate project later.
The "special" tools required to time the cams are a killer expense. Almost didn't make sense to do it myself.

Surgery is scheduled for about 3-4 weeks from now... there will be pics but please don't let the children see them. It's going to be gruesome

Nice. I have the same ducts ready for the exact same install (black C4S). Just need to get the time and coordinate the work.
Anyway, looks great, and I love getting a preview of what mine will look like. Thanks for posting.
