Disapointment

If that's really the case, then you're setting yourself up for a huge disappointment as well as taking a financial hit.

Dear patrickt; This one really hurts sort of a kick in the balls! I have a stomach ache right now. That is exactly what I want ! Are you a dream killer? What is wrong with my list?

Started out wanting the traditional blue with white strips but, red with stripes is nice also. That being said other colors would be acceptable, Just as long as paint is in good condition. Some cars I have seen look like they have been rode hard and put away wet.I am looking for the one who"s owner cared for it, the way I would .ERA, Superfomance, Backdraft, are the ones I have mostly been looking at. Need a sb-100 car prefer 427 stroker and independent suspension .Backdraft would be my last choice it would have to be a exceptional car for a really good price . Not trying to offend anyone this is my list hope this helps

Alright, do you find the positioning of the SPF radiator, pedal orientation, and wiper swing disconcerting or can you live with it?

The wiper swing can be changed, we have a kit for it. There is a reason it is done as it is.
The top hinged pedals cannot be changed however as a friend with an original CSX3000 street under car exhaust found out, the pedal pivot shaft runs close to the exhaust and after a couple of hours on a hot day he had an "AC" logo imprinted on the bottom of his sneakers.
