Judging by the kilt I'd say Anguswho's the guy in the heels?
Back from the exhaust shop. Next up is to get an alignment and get the a/c charged.

How's it sound?
Are those Dynomax Super Turbos?
When I start it up, it goes on fast idle & is moderately loud, but when it idles down, it's quieter than the repro exhaust I have on the big block cars. Other than moving it around the driveway, I haven't driven it, but I am curious how it will sound when driving. It still needs an alignment, which I'll (try to) get ASAP. I'll take a video and see if I can get my son to post it on youtube.
Yes.
Your wheel and tire combination is spot on!! Actually, your whole car is spot on.

Car looks incredible, quick question on your car trailer. I see that yours has a stone/air dam on the front to protect the cars which is something that I'm thinking of adding to my new trailer. Are there any hidden drawbacks to having that on there?.
Obviously, I'll let RC provide his thoughts for his trailer.
My father-in-law's trailer, that I have used many, many times, has an air dam as well. In my opinion, there are two potential drawbacks:
1) If your trailer is not long enough, then a large vehicle may need to come forward beyond the air dam. I've never had that issue with my father-in-law's trailer though.
2) When a car is loaded, it is hard(er) to get under the front end of the car since the air dam blocks your way. This hasn't bee a big issue for me, but more of a minor annoyance.
Having said the above, I wouldn't want a trailer without an air dam. I believe it has done an excellent job of protecting cars that I have had on the trailer.
RC always has cool cars,but since he retired he finds a way to put his grandpa stamp on them!
Thanks and none at all with the 18' length of this trailer bed. The car still has plenty of maneuvering room in front and no overhang in the rear.

You can also get fold down dams on some. I've never really looked at them, can they be "quick pinned" in place? But we digress... lol... more car pics, smoke show next.. LOL
