Default Rollin' on 6's

Working over the '73 shell. Into what I'm not sure. But it's better than leaving it in a warehouse with the RSA, doing nothing. Getting the paint back to whatever I can get it back to, to start.

Looks a bit under-powered. But I agree with the bumperette delete.

Looks like you should have had that engine carrier reinforced when you put on the harder mounts.
