Default Rebuild almost complete

After 3 yrs owning the car and unhappy with the previous motor, my boither and I tackled on rebuilding it to our taste. Always been a fan of cobras, our ultimate goal was to tastefully mod, hints of modern and classic but not overdo and make tacky. Previous owners wiring was a complete mess and suprised how we didnt catch fire! Some sketchy wiring for sure. We ran all new wiring, built new connectors pin by pin. Relocated fusebox and all grounds to trunk. All wires hidden as best we can. Rebuild 460 to 502. Trickflow alum head, howard cam, electric waterpump, cvr brackets and powersteering pump. Tko600. I worked with modern driveline for some sourcing of parts, excellent customer service. We redid our dash with carbon fiber, pushbutton start and all new switchgear. We also fabricated our own headers, wrapped in black. Chrome side pipes were replaced to black as well. Pictures to follow this weekend. This has been a learning experience and great brother project.
