    I didn't spend much time on panel alignment ,..hood could be shifted a little,..but it shuts smooth,...opens pretty good,..springs are little weak,...Doors need bushings,...etc all stuff for another day

    I really need to address the empty engine bay here soon. I guess

    I'll be putting some 245 60s on the front after the nationals possibly with a new 16to1 manual steering box. To further complement the no BS strictly business MO of this thing.

    Found some NOS tape decks on ebay I'm gonna snag one of those with a full arsenal of classic hard rock and hair metal
