Very Nice !

Yeah, you should see the front suspension!
Thanks guys!

Steve, as usual, excellent work..:thumbsup:

So what's new with the Riv?

Weve been busy wiring, plumbing revamping the factory radiator to work with the LS (you wouldnt believe the hours to find factory preformed style rubber hoses for the radiator!) and installing hidden stereo (to be controlled through I phone) been also working with Classic Instruments on custom factory style AC face plates for Vintage Air and stock appearing console shift plate,waiting on some chrome also. I always say the last 20 percent seems to be 80 percent of the work - its all in the details although most wont even notice.
It is running though and we hope to debut at Goodguys West Coast Nationals Pleasanton next month. Ill get some decent pics in a couple days. Now its back to work to :gitrdun:

Cant wait to see it. I'm sure it'll take hours just to see all the details.

Ok ...I know it's way back in the beginning but how hard was it to graft on the RS IFS clip? And secondly what type of rear end is in the vehicle? Did you guys retain the 2 piece driveshaft or did that also get modified?

There are different perceptions of quality for people and although it may be fairly straightforward to get it welded in, grafting it in properly, perfectly square, so one cannot tell it was even done, depends on skillset of the person performing the job, the tools and equipment available and experience. This type of work is what we do on a daily basis, so it was just going through the paces trying to do our best. I will say the RS piece is a very nice product though. The rear end is a 9" ford built in house with a Strange center section and 3.89 gears. The 2 piece driveshaft was retained with different U joints, yolk and length. :thankyou:

GOTCHA!! Thanks a lot!

Steve,

As with the Nailhead look given to the valve covers, was there that same discussion as far as making a new radiator look 1965 Riv before deciding on keeping the stock piece?
