Jame's look's pretty intimidating.I like it.:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

James,
Looks absolutely amazing. Do you think it is going to ad a substantially significant amount of weight over your old set up or do the other benefits outweigh the extra weight.
Thanks Shane

Well thank god someone got on their knee and took a proper perspective pic! (from my perspective!)

I think the non-RS front end adds to that as well. :cool:

Thanks! It shouldn't add any additional weight... At least that was the plan. We swapped out the stock rad support for an aluminum autorad piece and lost the RS motors and assemblies. The inner fenders are 2/3 of what used to be there and although overall beefier, the old front was all steel so this shouldn't be much heavier. The big difference is the hood - originally we had steel, then we tried CF, and we're back to steel. The wing weighs about 1/4 what the spoiler did but we added the gurney. If we're lucky it will be a wash. We took another 50 pounds of unnecessary weight out of the car so that should help. All things being equal, if the weight is close, it's a win overall.

Dick says that he did that especially for you... And even as short as he may be, he still had to get down on his knees to do it.

Me too - I am really happy with everything! This afternoon we got the wing fired up. Tomorrow we'll tie it in to the VSS and we should be about done. 2 weeks today we'll be on the track shaking it down...

Thanks... I've always had non-RS fronts until the OLC and wanted to give it a try. Now that I have the std front on again it brings back everything I love about the '67 fronts (says the guy that has now changed everything about the '67 front)

I'm thinking I need to contact BOS and have them build me a pair of those front fenders. I can hardly wait to see the OLC in paint.
