    Here's what the rear is looking like, I figured out what I wanted the exhaust to look like.

    LED tail lights? Exhaust looks good, but where is the gas tank? Looks like you cut some more fender flares also. Looks great Tom.

    no gas tank yet, although I plan on making it part of the trunk floor and it should be around 20 gal. Here's the underside

    Note to everyone who reads this!!!!!!

    Radmav told me about the Jaguar rear end (he wants credit) I was aready going to put an IRS in this car. I was going to use a 90 something T-bird with custom upper and lower A arms. The Jag was a much easier install so I went with it.

    Aha!

    I thought that was a Jaguar rear end.
    I think a tech article is probably in order Thomas.
    Again, great going.

    I think you should leave the trunk floor open. That way we dont have to crawl under to see your work. We can just open the trunk.
