    I like the fact that I have done Everything myself, except the exhaust and re-buiilding the trans. I've never had a project car before so this is by far the best stuff. i do like my front bumper tuck though.

    My favorite is my new engine setup and the small amount of money required to make it all go together. Except for the new carb, which cost twice what it cost me to put the entire engine together.

    Other favs are 3.80 spooled rear, shock tower notches, bobcats, billet grill and turn signals mount behind them, caltracs, and subframe connectors. Oh, and dual flowmaster exhaust, but it is starting to get old, being as loud as it is. New carpet...

    There is just too much that I have done, and very little, if any, was regretted.
