      I really like the stock appearing look. You don't really notice much at first other than the wheels with the hood closed. Thats the look I'm going for the harder you look the more you find.
      some day it'll be done

      I agree with Mikey, the understated look is dead on with this car. The real car guys find the little surprises as you look closer. Very nice car Bruce, who was the builder?

      I built the car myself with the help of a good friend of mine, Kenny Davis from Kenny Davis Hot Rods. He built the 3" exhaust and the - Pro Charger tubing. Kenny gave me alot of ideas along the way, but I did most of the work myself, Thanks for the compliments on my car !!!

      welcome to the site Bruce.

      When you have time make sure you post some pics of the graphics on the side of the car. I'll post the pics of the valve covers once there done.

      I read "Second Owner" in your post and thought you bought it in it's present condition so I assumed a different builder. I like to see owner built cars of this caliber, great job.
