[DW31S]

Great job on a great car!!! I really like the stance as it kinda resembles how my '69 W-31 sits. My car, as you might know is on the cover and featured in the Feb. 2012 Muscle Car Review.
That Russ Dunmire car was always one of my favorites (I am partial to dealer-sponsored Oldsmobile stockers) and it always was presented well with a good clean appearance.
As for the exhaust---it had to remain on the car during competition but could be opened from the headers. I have a pic of my car from 1969 running F/S at Capitol raceway and the exhaust is clearly visible.
Do you plan to drive your car at all on the street? Any Nostalgia races? How about attending the York U.S.30 Dragway reunion in July? That is a great show and your car would be a real hit.
