Finally finshed my bucket install. Up next, suspension, exhaust, shifter, center console delete. By the end of Feb the car will be finished and ready for the streets / shows / autocross with my son.

Like Tex said, lift the end without the wheels up and when vertical… lift a couple inches to the bracket. They are heavy but fortunately I can still maneuver them pretty easily.

Beautiful, I especially love the combo of the ducktail and the mud-flappy-things (what are those called?)! Do you have a mod list, by any chance?

Very nice car and I hate to ask - what happened to the gas filler door? It really pops!

When i bought the car it was missing the gas tank cover. I bought a new one and the shop wrapped it for me in the only yellow they had available for free. I don't mind too much, the car needs a total respray eventually. Gonna work on adding a couple more exterior pieces and get her ready for a paint job.

Love me a sunrise drive! Last summer I did a mountain run and got there for the sunrise with some coffee and donuts. Need to repeat this soon!

You're in DC area? I'll do this with you! We won't hold hands as the sun rises though

Yesssir. I'm in Glover Park. Will keep you posted next time I go. If the thought of holding hands is keeping you up at night, I'll be at Katies CC tomorrow morning meeting up with some folks. I won't hold your hand but you can count on a fist bump and some car talk
