    Yea the rear will get some work...because let's face it, that's all most will see.
    Then again, my last Z had a weird rear too.

    Thanks everyone. Gonna hang onto this one a bit.

    I say do the front bar on like the wingding-a-ling or whatever its called. It wouldn't look like such a 70 year old hooker's vagina. Oh and I think side exit exhaust would be nice with the v8 set up.

    I am getting a front bumper. But the side exhaust....no way.

    And what's wrong with a 70 year old hookers vagina?

    That is badazz and I even like the back of it, different than any I've seen and that's always a + in my book.

    Even with that 383 there's still room in the bay!
    And I guess I'm the first to actually like the back.

    Ask and ye shall receive Bugman. Painted the back wheels to match the front.






    Reran the spark plug wires ...and added a coolant overflow tank.



    Pulled a valve cover off to check the insides and put a cop console in to hold my drinks. (see before of spark plug wires...ewww)




    That's where I am at so far. Already got someone trying to get it and offering something hot, plus i'm after a car on IA that I want so horse swapping may be in the immmediate future.
