I have to say, I spent all afternoon reading this thread and its not the first time. I'd love to see some recent shots of the cars.

I was following you and your car on instagram until I have up social media! I love the proportions of your chop
Dang! Well I'll keep my eye open for something. I'm always looking for parts.
That's an amazing chop.. im a big fan of this one as well[ATTACH]

You may check with EMS and see if they sell the stampings with their toe board patch.

I'm looking at buying a 12v blower motor, and the 12v wiper motor, but are the stock switches (assuming they're in good shape) going to care about...
