      Orange Sunshine

      Here are a few updated pics. If they work! It is up and running great. A few, minor teething troubles, all in all working fine. After a few more miles maybe I'll blow it apart and paint it. Well maybe a lot of miles, it's fun

      Looks good. Have fun before you blow it apart. Once it is in jail and you get tired of it, without knowing what it is like to drive, can get you more discouraged. Put on the miles.

      BTW, what is the lower middle gauge?

      Oh, and an [ing] before and [/ing] after the links will let them appear in the thread so people don't have to click to look, just replace the n with an m.

      Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
      Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

      I'll be painting it myself, so no jail, unless I get lazy! The middle gauge is temp.

      Remind me again what the Nicky badge is for?

      Feels good to have it running and driving doesn't it? Congrats

      Nickey was a dealer like Yenko and others that built hi-po cars. They were out of Chicago. My car probably wasn't sold there, but I like it on there. It didn't have this under the hood then either!

      That's right. I remember now. Yeah I'd say a blower wasn't under the hood of any of those cars back in the day. Looks great. Thanks

      I just was under the car checking bolts and such and took a few more pics This last one open at your own risk. This is what I found while cleaning up the rear end. Hence the cars name. http://s10v8.com/members/HILROD/DSC00773.JPG Hamms beer!
