so i took pix of this before i started but i'll be doggone if i know where they went smiley-confused005 so i'll post what i do have and hope it's good. if not, it's MY bad and it's kool. i was challenged to go prostreet with this and i headed that direction with one exception, i gave it some front rubber capable of turning a corner at more than idle speed because not every road is straight smiley-scared002 otherwise this is pure 80's style, you know the era when dayglo paint, pink and aqua street rods/hot rods and mullets reigned supreme. anyhoo, onto the pix. started with this added some of this went out in the scale junk lot and robbed the motivation from this it was a 400ci poncho shortened the rear bumper cuz it was stickin way out pulled some seats out of the stash and made a rear mounted seat for junior built and painted a cage for it interior mock-up(only the dash and doorpanels are kit/stock pieces) rad from the coors car with xtra shroud custom grill and headlight treatment: the grill is the outer piece from the goat and the 2 insert pieces were cut from a custom amt 57chevy grill, headlights from a 64 impala and overall mock-up so far yes, i started early. like as soon as i got the kit but rules allowed for it and never was any good at waiting smiley-scared002 enjoy

Frank, this is looking ba ba baaaad ass. Really like the stance you have there. Colors bright lime and purple? Oh, and are you going to wear a mullet and listen to big hair bands while you build this?

Engine looking good. Is that a Decal you're using for the oil filter? Where from?

thank you Mike Dennis-feel free to butt in all you like when dropping links like that two-thumbs-up-smiley-emoticon Iceman-it is a decal of the word "fram" with a tiny bit of orange around applied to an orange painted filter. i cut the decal from an old nascar sheet smileyCACETROO_zps365bb43e
