It'll happen at some point. I've got a few things I'd like to do with it once the car is complete.

I like to call it " The Johnny Cash of Engine Bays". Looks real good!

Since on your avatar you think we're all #1, thought this would be appropriate. Touchee
I'd love to have one. Thought about painting what I have black, but decided against it. I may swap it all out at some point, if and when I have the $$$$$ to do it. I'd prefer to get the interior done first though and that's not going to be cheap. I need a little more stainless hardware in a few spots under the hood IMO. Just the visible spots.

That does seem to be the Lat-G salute doesn't it.

Kinda wild how much it improves the looks of everything. Getting it installed without scratching everything up was my biggest concern. Thankfully Jeff was there to provided an extra set of hands and insure it all went smoothly.

I didn't realize just how far into the deep end of the pool I went with this build. Jim (the painter) helped push it there. While I absolutely love how things are turning out, it would have been smart to build one to a lesser level before taking this on. Jeff constantly has customer cars in and out of his shop which helps further my education. It's mainly the little things that result in a smart, clean build and a lot of tips and trick on how to. He always has an answer and isn't afraid to stop me before I do something that would result in a negative outcome.

Having friends who are willing and able to share/assist in helping me achieve my goal has been the best part about the build. I like to say that building a car takes you on a journey long before it takes you for a ride.
