I'm not sure why some of the pics came out like that. It's just regular orange paint I think.

He has some work to do to it still. He basicaly bought it as you see it.

The front end needs to be raised some cause it's hardly drivable now with the frontend that low.

Also I think the rearend is welded solid. He's gonna put a limited slip in so it's more streetable.

I would also paint the yellow traction bars black.
Loose the Weld wheels in favor of some Corvette Ralley wheels.
Loose the skinny tires up front.
Put the inner front fender wells back.
Put a drop air cleaner on it and put back the factory hood.
Have the dual exhaust coming out to the back bumper with chrome tips.

I tend to like a more factory look when it comes to muscle cars. Let them know your rock'n the big block by the sound of the car and not the monster cowl induction hood but it is cool toy all the same.

I'm a Ford diehard first, but gearhead second! That thing is sweet. As mentioned above,,paint the slapper bars black or get rid of them all together. It may be a 70's car, but that form of traction control is 70's technology.

yea he needs to do some work to it. He's not real particular so I don't see it getting perfect but I'm sure he will get the major things taken care of.

I just told him to get some new tires so we could take it to the track and see what it will do!
