Man I like that ride...nice recovery after the fire.That's one thing I don't like about my 70RR and that's the stock hi-back seats.Would love to put some more modern,comfortable seats in there but collectors plates would be voided...we'll see...

thanks bud
 
Glad to hear she didn't go all up in smoke on ya..Like the custom work!
Welcome to the site...
 
Hope to get off work head straight home un box my rack kit and start bolting. Hope no issue with my oil pan or headers....

Classic auto air kit coming too
 
Well I got the rack in finally. Wouldn't fit my milodon pan so I bought a stock style deep sump. Fits good now but still had to massage the rack to clear pan. Now the issue is header fitment.
 
Wow, pretty cool stuff, I really like the accessory drive. I take it you have access to a CNC or just a damn good machinist. I can't imagine mine catching fire, that had to make you sick. Watching your video has added a little motivation to bust my butt and try to fire mine up on my 5 day vac. Looking good
 
Awesome job on everything. Like the high-tech dash. I imagine your next job should be to pilot the U.S.S ENTERPRISE.
