79 Poncho. Thanks for the great comments and the plate idea. I was thinking of painting it the dark dark blue (Royal Blue??) color that you see on so many Grand Prixs from '63. But mixed with more flake. Then name the car "NIGHT MIST". I've always liked that idea. A good plate would be---1OFNONE--and I've always liked Catzila. But I made a song for Troys big ol' Arapaho using Catzilla so he has first dibs on the name.
For a name on the car I would really like to find a good Indian name that would not be offensive but would be a strong name of tradition. In the Medicine Man /Arapoho vein. But something nice. Since it is to be under boost I'd like something the pertains to the magic wind in the Indian language. I want it respectful. Anywho that's a long way off yet.
I got a little bit more done on the firewall. The upper inner corner done and some of the welds ground down. Once I'm all done welding I'll grind the welds, bondo the seams and paint the firewall. Should look pretty decent by the time I'm done.

Catzilla is a Mark creation.....go for it.  Since it's so wild could use maybe something along the "Fyrwtr Cat" lines...or "Thndr Cat"...
