John....wow.....nice work!
Yes, more pics of that red beauty, please.
Welcome back, Leland, it's been a while. This is a Stage II modification with internal modifications as well. It's a little louder and more aggressive.
Are you shopping for another 993?
Damn, that is cold! It's nowhere near that here and I'm freezing!

I have gone from stock to RSR's to Stage II's. Copied and pasted below is what I said in a thread after installing the Stage II's:
"I just voted for the sage IIs in the thread with the poll about Fister muffler options, but wanted to expand on the topic in my own thread.
I had the RSR mufflers on my cab and wanted just a little more sound without pissing off the neighbors, myself on a long drive or the wife when she is with me. The stage IIs seem to be the ticket.
IMHO the Stage IIs are just slightly louder at startup and idle (very cool, pretty much perfect) and there is more growl under load and WOT. On-ramps and "getting on it" to over take a slower car sounds really sweet. Cruising on the freeway I hear no difference at all, none. Just mildly cruising around town very little difference, too. Where it is more fun and noticable is the aforementioned agrressive moves and decelerating to a stop light, coasting / slowing down a hill you get some little pops and blurbles that sound really cool too me. NOT obnoxious in any way,...but even a total non-car person knows it is not stock.
I give a 2 Thumbs Up endorsment to Darin for great service, shipping and comunication."

Thanks guys for all the compliments!!!
The truck is a '34 Chevy that belonged to my grandfather. I found receipts inside dating back to 1937 in my great grandfather's name so it's been in the family a few years. The truck was a farm truck that I drove on the ranch when I worked for my grandfather during summers way back in my high school years. He gave me the truck 5 years ago when I had the space and the resources to do a proper restoration on it. Here's what I started with:
Pre 1936 Chevies are fairly uncommon because they had wood-frames bodies. The wood would rot and the bodies fall apart. Trucks even more so because they were work vehicles. Here are a few shots during restoration:
Here's the final product:
For those that think I'm a nut for polishing muffler clamps, here's what's under the truck:
Engine is a GM Perfomance Parts ZZ4 350, tranny a 700R4 4 speed, rear end a Ford 9 inch. Chassis is new built by Progressive Automotive in Baltimore, Ohio, fabrication, body and paint by Leland's Automotive in Scotts Valley, CA and interior by Rivero's Upolstery in Watsonville, CA.
