What are you doing about the dash and gauges? I also have a 68 and really don't like the dash layout. By the way, you made some great choices on parts, it should be a great build. I have the Speed Tech torque assembly and it is everything Roger said it is. Good luck with your build.

Didn't I post a pic of the Stack Unit?


Here's the stainless exhaust we finished.... the 10" muffler cuts down the noise,but it's still pretty loud. Why? Because racecar!

When you have an opportunity for a distant side profile of the car it will be interesting to take in that exhaust. Of course, probably nowhere close to as interesting as hearing it.

I'll have to wait to get it out in the sun, I tried a full shot and it got lost in the shadows... not that impressive to see.

Yeah... something tells me we might see more than a few impressive pictures of this one.

The car is almost out of paint jail!!!

Still got a few things to do like finish off the hood pins and put the rear spoiler back on, but it's pretty much ready.

I had a stripe painted on that's a nod to the new 2012 SS's... only difference is the words blue hour put in the stripe. The stripe matches the wheel lip and is lightly "brushed" on. Looks slick up close



Going to the shop tomorrow to pick it up and drive it home. Crossing my fingers that my car makes it all the way home LOL

Congrats on the finish. Looks like a little over a year since first post.

Would love to hear what that exhaust set up sounds like.
