The engine will be a 428PI block w/ Edlebrock heads, the trans is a TKO600RR. I went through Jay @ Vintage Motorsports and he's been very patient.

Thanks Jim; the weird thing about them is that the light makes a huge difference in how they look. In bright light or a flash they look bright red but in lower light they look almost maroon. Kind of neat really.

But with all the rain we've had, they've fallen behind in being able to road test cars. I think I'll drive down there and haunt them as soon as the roller shows up. YIPPEEE

The car that spit the bracket onto mine is silver with black stripes and red pin stripes. It's a striking combo. But it is already on it's way to Conn.

The trunk will be an easy fix. with a black car you might want to look into getting a Paint Protection, like film or armorcoat spray on! well worth it!! 2500 miles on mine and no chips.

I'll have to look into that, thanks.

Dang, it is almost your car's twin. I went with dual roll bars and a red interior though. Then there's that whole steering wheel on the wrong side thing! What's even more weird is that I'm a big bald guy with a goatee as well!


Thanks guys, Steve
