Great job! - functionally and looks wise. The car is going to be completely custom fabricated by the time you're done with it.

Looks good. I had a BBK setup on my 89 and it looked really similar to this. It was noisy as hell though but I don't think that's going to bother you hearing your exhaust on those vids you posted lol. I've got to say that I admire your creativity and it's pretty cool to see how far you have taken your car without sinking a pile of money into parts.

Agreed, that's how the original hot rodders did it.
