thanks,
it was a labor of love

its a full on race car:
long tube headers,
5 speed,
cobra clutch/steeda quadrant and firewall adjuster

but is actually still street legal, (in south carolina, at least)
as we don't have emissions requirements

sun must be up (as headlights are currently disconnected)
and you must use arm signals (as blinkers are disconnected)
brake lights work fine, though

no a/c, (though there is a helmet and shirt cooler).
no heater, (since it is in greenville, south carolina)

pm me your email, if you need more pictures, or info.
thanks,
doc
