The car tracks straight on the fwy but the steering wheel is clocked 1/8 or less to the left. The BJ inspection is a great lead Todd. The uppers are aluminum pins (don't know how to describe them but they come with the LG spindles) and the lowers are the Pfadt/Howe racing units. I'd bet they need a good greasing after the '10' years they sat in fabrication.

Did you trade Rob your iPhone for his old Blackberry? That is one seriously grainy photo. I expect more in the future.

Also, I would have walked away too, when Brad and Rob started talking Ferds and Pontiacs. I probably would have gone to check out that killer 5.5L modular engine in the corner.

That's a good way to describe it Skipper. 'Perks' me right up!

I had to take that from across the street and zoom a bit due to cross traffic. Not the best thing for an iPhone. And believe me, we did check out the large-by-huge 5.5 mod motor with the tunnel ram lookin' thingy on top.

Hey Steve - that is the tinted glass kit and I'm not sure what % it comes in or who the original manufacturer is. Call Mike @ Musclerodz and he'll hook you up!
