    Juan,

    Very nice indeed. I do like the grill and the hood without a scoop. Should be a VERY cool car.

    Hi Brent:

    Thanks for the compliment. I also think the car is going to look cool with the Street theme. I am so fired up, Alan made my day today with these photos.

    The grill is going to make your car stand out. I forget the username of the CC member, but there is a guy over there with an ERA 289 that is maroon with a saddle interior. He has a grill like yours, and I would venture to say that that is the best looking combination I have seen and the chrome grill and rollbar really set that car off.

    Juan, looking really good. Love to see it next to a FIA to see the impact of the changes. It should really have that "unique" look. Pun intended...

    See you in Gadsden!

    Well, the car will be very close to being finished by Homecoming but I believe they are planning to deliver it by early June. Rick and I should be ready with the drivetrain by then.

    Juan, have you settled on a color? Yep, it is looking good. Get Rick to help load the engine and we will all hammer the thing into place at homecoming.Been raining here all spring, Jan., Feb., and now March, flooding everywhere, think I will go home open all the garage windows , crank it up and just sit there and play taking a trip, been out one time since christmas.

    Juan, Your car is going to look awesome! The slabside look is very cool. I like the idea of burgundy paint with saddle leather, but I also think British racing green would look good on this car with saddle. Can't wait to see what color you go with.

    The color I have settled on is 2003 GM Light Toreador Red Clearcoat metallic. Is a deep red with subtle metallic content.

    I can't wait until Homecoming to see it almost finished.
