Hi all, thought you might want to see pics of the project that is finally done.  Or at least 99 percent done.  Of course they are never done!
I kept at it and got a lot of great help over the years.  I learned again that nothing is perfect! but, I am more than happy with it.
440 sixpack with keisler 5 speed (what a hassle to get right), 3:23 suregrip, a-body disc up front, firm feel box, auto trunk release, power windows (not easy)

sorry for the photobucket but I think my pics are too big or something.

Thanks guys for the nice comments!!!YES CRUISING TIME!! it gets plenty of attention, but, does not get as many looks or comments as the daytona clone, but i hate to admit it, i think it is more fun to drive than the dayclona!  oh well, pretty pleasant problem!!!
