    So I missed some updates but here it is.... Runs pretty good but I still need to swap the 39 Trans into her.... First trip out was with my 34 pickup to the West Coast Kustoms show in Santa Maria last weekend.. Have several more shows and drives to take it on in the next few weeks.

    Looks great!

    How do you like the exhaust note? Thinking about a similar setup.

    Very nice, I'm running a B trans behind my Miller banger, thinking of adding V8gears to that, or I have an early falcon 3 speed with Jeep top shift converted to closed driveline that I may swap in, or the 39 trans I have!

    The contrast between the red frame and the blue of the body is fooking genius! Well done sir.
