    Beautiful work. I saw some outside headers. Just my opinion hood sides and sneaky outlets are so much cooler!! Keep it up. TEB

    Looks to be about 5 short.......Really dig the build...Keep it rolling.
     
  17. This thing is looking really nice. Not sure if it was stated but who did your carbs?

    I ended up picking up a single 32 drivers side spindle off of tommy Caruso and a buddy of mine josh had a the match to the pair he set me up with and a decent pair of 36 wide five drums! I'm going to convert my 40 backing plates to the early spindles. And also picked up a nice pair of 32 passenger headlights I'm going to use instead of my guide 682j.
