    Interesting, I like it so far. The only thing that catches my eye as odd is the "roundness" of the back edge of the front bumper vs. the "sharpness" of the edge of the rocker/skirt.

    Nice...Nice...Very Nice, where did you get the tail lights and do you have reverse lights still? Nice location for the tags. I thought about that too since I had to put a race cell in the trunk. I still have to do something with that big whole.

    Looking good, looks like the only things you haven't modified on the outside are the roof and doors.

    I've looked at the front airdam and rocker peices for some time and I think once the proper color is on it won't be an issue. The rocker peice is suppose to be something that you see but don't notice. and in most veiws it's that way, the yellow primer really makes it stand out.

    The reverse light will be inbetween the exhaust holes if I can get it to withstand the heat :D

    Here are some of the details so far

    street boss 302, custom headers, T5 trans, Jaguar xj6 rear end with 3.73 posi, Jaguar xj6 front suspension, custom grill, power windows and door locks, custom dash, four bucket seats, custom fuel tank, 89 probe gas filler door, simi truck LED's tail lights (60 LEDs per lens) custom bezels, custom exhaust bezel, drip rails removed, pinto door handles, threw body sub fram connectors and custom wipers.

    I like the way the front end looks,different and racey looking, I'm sure in time you will win some trophy's with it.

    60 LED tail lights...WOW...That will be a heck of a bright brake light. I would have never thought of that one for sure. I want LED tail lights too but I want to keep the original piece also.

    Pinto Door handles?

    You mean exterior door handles? Are they smaller? Thomas it looks great.
    What color(s) is this one going to be?

    Pinto door handles are shorter than our Maverick door handles.
