Figured I'd give one more update... so the body work is basically all done... Everything looks good. Brand new everything for the front basically. Here is the picture of the front end repair...

As far as performance... she's waiting on the engine and transmission to drop in...

Transmission: A&A performance rebuilt street and strip 727... HD components and racing spec. Standard gears, 4-gear planetaries, bolt in sprag, 3000 stall converter. Very pleased with their customer service and knowledge. I haven't dropped the hammer yet as it isn't installed, but everything looks top notch.

Engine: '67 440 bored 0.030" over. .540 lift comp cam, roller hydraulic, comp roller rockers, and scorpion lifters. 440 Source crank, Holley double pumper 750, TTI full length headers (an absolute work of art), ceramic coated and polished. It currently has iron heads and running static compression of 10:1, so I'll probably be mixing in some racing fuel until I'm able to upgrade to aluminum heads. RPM performer intake... Basically HemiGeno's build, but with aftermarket intake and non stock appearing parts (headers, etc), so it should be close to his build... Big thanks to HemiGeno and Firefighter for all your help and recommendations throughout... much obliged. This site has helped me so much it's unbelievable.

Here are the TTI headers...
