Thanks guys, next I am saving up for a new ignition system.
Today before we put the hood back on, we are going to paint the inside of it. Hope it turns out like I want, if so I will post pics later.

Rocker boxes look GREAT!!!! Very sharp. I know how dull those were, you must have spent a long time polishing those.
Looks tough, :thup: :thup: :thup:
