Oh for sure! They turned out great. Did they fit ok?

Sure like the patina on those ladder bars and tow tabs. I can't wait to see the finished day-two product!

Holy smokes Sam,

There is a lot of instillation there... You better get a crackin' my friend unless that's an older photo.... We only have a few weeks to go here before the big show!!

Your '69 dated Sun Super Tach arrived safe and sound and looks great. It will find its way on to the steering column. Thanks Jason!

Sam,


Great to hear Sam. It should look right at home when installed.

“Fit” is a subjective term. I finessed the passenger's side in this evening. It was MUCH easier than the driver’s side. That side was a challenge. The reverse lockout linkage/pivot point had to be removed. The distance between the headers and steering column, z-bar, and engine mount are paper thin!!! The trajectory of the output ends of each header are kind of heading in different directions. Still have some more finessing but the sound these things will make should be worth it!

You got that right Rich. No time to spare. Every waking minute that i am not at work is spent in the shop on the ‘velle. Lori has been VERY understanding - I’m not WORTHY!!!!!! I do have a plan and so far am staying on schedule. Stand by............

Wow, I can imagine. They will sound KILLER and you'll forget all about the fitment!

Can't wait to see the end result Sam, it's going to be great! :biggthumpup:

Sam,

It appears my "Day 2 Clinic" idea is doing some voodoo-hoojoo on YOU! :hmmm::thumbsdown: Personally....i think this is all Mike and Grady's fault... what with their 'bajillion point Day 2 COPCAR and such!

Mike.... I'm stealing those batteries. Bee is best viewed through Sunglasses!:rolleyes2:

Looking forward to seeing you all and seeing these Day 2 mods in person! So FRIGGIN cool!

Cheers
Dave
