Somehow, I survived the torrential rain/flooding in my area and got to work with the old girl in one piece. Well, pieces may have fallen off but I certainly didn't hear them.

Glad to hear you got her nice and mostly done, Craig. She looks like and I'm sure runs better. Cool

Got the front end painted black and filled it up. 22.8 mpg so far...not too shabby. It's hard to stay out of positive manifold pressure. Very Happy

Drives pretty nice. The power is awesome and the handling is even better. I foresee a brake upgrade in my future.

good to hear man!! so is it what you expected it to be? power wise? more or less? brake upgrades can only be a good thing.
