Children.  Behave your selves.:22

Matt don't you have boosted brakes?  I could not see a brake booster any where.

Looks good.  Another thumping big yellow bird on the road soon.  Keep us posted.  Lots of Pics please.

Looking good Mat, looking very good. I am a little concerned about how she will pull up with out the boosted brakes though. I guess you will have to just see how it goes. Hurry up & get her on the road.:20:20:20:20:20:20:20

Sanding!  Don't want to give anything away about your secret weapon.;-)  

On another note, Best Mufflers is worth talking to about exhaust systems.;40  I get my system back shortly from the ceramic coaters. I'll post shots when it's fitted next week. [get it now?]
