Alvin, had to do some things at the shop today.... I feel your pain.

It is unsightly to see such a work of art, almost on a pedestal-like car lift, caged like an animal and unable to roam free !

If I were you... I wouldn't be surprised if you put 2,000 miles on the first weekend you got the car back !

Wow!
Out of curiosity, what are you going to do with the space where the duel mufflers where located? Extend the rear wheel liner? Leave open? Just wandering.

Thanks for sharing

What? No engine tray? That will complete the project. I have one for sale...cheap!

I've been following this for the past 2 years. Can't wait to see the completed brid! Please post a video when you can.

Full first drive report is required, more pictures are demanded!
