The only way I can log on is thru my kindle and my pics of the car on on my main computer. As soon as I figure out the problem I'll post pics.. It does have the dual snorkel air cleaner too.

I tried to sell the car for a while as it just sat outside in my driveway. No takers so I decided to get it out of the weather and give it a makeover. I will be posting pics on my progress. I figured it really a rare car so it deserves some love. I last number I got from Chris was 26 cars built in this body. 455 D port was the top dog because you could not get a HO in a luxury lemans.

I'm thinking about putting on honeycombs or the original wire wheel hubcaps. Why are you interested in them?

Really appreciate the nice compliments you guys give me. Sometimes its very stressfull as me and my body guy dont see eye to eye on certain things nad its great when a project finally comes together. I was really apprehensive about painting this car but as i see it now i know i made the right choice. Just the hood and skirst need to be painted. I think Im going to leave the skirts in the trunk and put on rear wheel moulding instead. it will look tougher then along with the honeycombs. Last thing is to get rid of those ugly tailpipes. Thinking about going with the GTO white stripe down the side for kicks. I was going to add a hood tach but shelled that idea today for a indash tach insted and a formula wheel. Check out those rare tallamps. i hand painted the silver back in them..What a pain in the B@@LS

Looks good Don! Are you going to cut the rear wheel moulding to match the front or just put full mouldings all the way around? I agree with the getting rid of the tailpipes too! Keep up the great work.
