    I have driven mine without at least one of these missing at one time or another...hood, fenders, windshield, doors, trunk lid and bumpers. only got stopped for the rear bumper (no tag displayed)..:yup:
    ...here if you have a windshield, it can't be cracked. if you have lights, they have to work...

    Cut one of the lower mounting tabs off a spare fender and welded it on the fender off my car.

    Took the mav to the muffler shop and had the exhaust hooked back up. While it was there I had two ball & socket flange connectors put in so I can remove my H-pipe. Also they helped me adjust the pre-load on the hydraulic clutch, because by the time I got there the car wouldn't go into gear anymore... It's nice to have a place willing to help with unrelated issues just because they care... A big thank you to Modern Muffler in Ocala,Florida...... Now I need a better gear in the 8" rear because with the 279 5 gear is useless...lol
