It was awesome, I had a smile from ear to ear! :D
I think he's proud to see it still in the family and running better than ever, with a flare. Not to mention, it looks better than ever too. Lol

Update!!

It's been a while since I last posted. Though, I have been plugging away on little things here and there.
Still waiting for the exhaust flange for the headers so I can bolt the rest of the exhaust up and register/insure the car.

If anyone could make me one of these ASAP. I would greatly appreciate it!

Alright well on to the car!

Made a heat shield for the intake out of an old "No Parking" sign I was tripping over in the garage. Also made a custom oil catch can from one of my Uncles old (brass/copper?) jugs he used to collect. He had a ton of these things, small and large, so my Aunt didn't mind me drilling holes in one of them.
