    @ Belair Thanks!!

    @ Gas mask, well not this winter! Trying to get her running again! New 235, and installing airride.... in the future get the outside done.... don't like the color!
    Thinking about brown... maybe with a gold flake roof!.... but I think you know that a car is never done ;-)
