Then last week brother Kontinental Tyler (outlaw) through togther a custom dual exhaust along with his new shop partner Lux at CrushProff.
Can't say anough good about these two and their shop.
They picked up the car fabbed the exhaust, tuned the engine, change the plugs and oil, cleaned it up and delived it back to my house!
All I sent it in for was the exhaust!
Outlaw left me a little message on my name tagged drive shaft. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Took her out for a drive around the hood, drives nice.
Plenty of power, shifts good, stops good, steers good.
Great feeling!

Next up new kingpins http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif Then she should be mechanicaly ready to go.
Lots of sanding in front of me but man it's getting closer and closer.
The Olds windshield looks great, Thanks to help with the install from Fatluckys and Voneyeball.
If any body wants to photoshop some color on her I need some insperation.
More to come............
