Cool

Nice start. I was all excited until I scrolled down and saw that Chevrolet engine in the Ford Build Section. Oh well.

I bet a moderator can change it and make everything right.
Wouldn't want the Ford guys to think that there is a Ford motor being sold in new Camaro's.

What year is the car?
I know it is an NB but am a bit hazy to tie it down any closer.
Nice shop and a good start.
Hope you have a bunch of swap items on order cause that was the big hold up while I was doing my build.
