    Looking great and sure making some fast process!

    I see that you received a new exhaust system from Gardner. We got one recently for a current project (Chevrolet) and really liked the new T-shirt and glass that were included.

    Be aware that it's packed in there somewhere. The shirt was only a Large so the only person that it fits is one of my kids.

    I had not noticed until you mentioned the AAR but the Mopar is different on the shirt and the glass. Shirt has a green AAR and the glass has a green A12 Super Bee. Thankfully the GSX is on both.

    Wow White Post is still around? I remember seeing their adds in Hemming (the thick book) back in the early 90's.

    Fun Fact: Named after the town of White Post which is named after the white post that George Washington placed when he worked as a surveyor.

    Got these back from painter. They were wet in these photos, and flattened out some. IMG_0600.jpg IMG_0601.jpg

    Can't answer that. I know they contract bumpers and stuff like that.
