    Drove it back from paint. Runs great. Screams just like I remembered it the last time I drove it in 2006. Ugly fire. Almost completely rebuilt. Jury is still out in my book on the hood. It'll have to work for now. Different. Interior has electrical/gauges that need to get working, steering wheel/horn hookup, new headliner, clean seats, install console & more gauges there. Looks to be ready for the May party.

              Or make them functional.

              Great looking Bird, though.

                    Very nice!

                    I'd also open up the snorkle and see if I could find a Ram Air Formula intake.

                    Or you can sell it to me as is.

                    They both work...lol...

                          Thanks for the vote on the hood. Yeah, I agree with the black on the snorkel, but I also have thought about making them functional as suggested. Does anyone have a ram air intake

                          The car will be at the event, however, It is 4 sale, so maybe one of you will be driving it, not me. inquiries @ 248 808 1209 car has been appraised 42k no matching numbers. REAL nice car though and super fast.

                          Here is the interior right now. Done this weekend, I hope. I hate electrical. Part of the problem is my eyes. Can't hardly read the diagram cause the type is so small, can't see the wires cause there's no light, can't get under the dash cause I'm too big.

                            Man that is one cool combo. I have never seen a shaker RA hood.

                              If you are worried about originality, fix it. If you are building a street car. keep it, it's cool as hell! Use the Shaker for the motor and vent the Ram Air to cool the brakes
