    Installed the front bumper and valance and swapped the trunk lid spring for one off a grabber so the lid would stay up.

    I drove it off and on all day yesterday :) It runs very well... The temp never went above 183* even in traffic... I did notice that my water pump is getting noisy so after the show I'll order a new pump... The one thing that concerns me is my voltage at the gage drops to 12.5 volts with the headlights on,I need to check it at the battery because when it says 13.5 at the gage it's 14.6 at the battery at idle...
