Well the exterior aint so hot right yet thats coming after all the drive train is done. But for the exterior Ive done got a set of clear corners for the front, ordered a roll pan which should be here sometime next week. Then i got to do all the body work and get all the dents and dings out and paint it. But here a pics of it with my 4wheeler in the back.
Image

The interior is almost done I just need to get a new floor mat. I painted the dash, door panels and everything and it turned out half decent. I got a set of bucket seats out of a 05 cavalier for 40 bucks and they look good for the price. lol

The motor swap im using a pretty much stock 302. Its got a Weiand stealth intake, .500 lift cam, Holley 650 DP, MSD Ignition, the usual. Im using vet mounts and a explorer 4.0 radiator and explorer rear end with 3L73 gears. I got a set of tri-y headers made for the gt40p heads.

If you need pics of anything in particular let me know. I have a bunch of pics and a complete list of mods on my car domain thing. Here is a link to it.

We all have works in progress one way or another. You can buy a new house and it's never done till the better half is happy.
Where did you get the tri-y's made for the "P" heads?
