[QUOTE="Black Gold 380R, post: 16676767, member: 70025"] Thank you Bob! Yeah, the filters work, but are not the answer I'm looking for LOL. [IMG alt="star wars These aren't the droids we're looking for. GIF't the droids we're looking for. GIF"]https://media1.giphy.com/media/a4OdZm6eacgMw/200.gif[/IMG] Thank you for your compliment in my forward progress. Back in the day I would see my brother modifying stuff to make it fit. Back then (Late 80's) I was like "If it doesn't fit out of the box it's not for me." LOL. My brother told me that modifying was just part of hot rodding. Then my brother did some pretty major work on this car before I took it back. He told me that as long as you are "working" on your car progress is being made. My brother has been in the performance game since he was a kid. As a matter of fact my tuner and my brother are the ones who grew up together. So, after watching what my brother was doing and taking his philosophy I thought I could do it to. And every time I hit a road block I try to figure out a way to over come it. And if I can't do it by myself I work on something else until I can get help. Watching and learning from my brother has given me the mind set to tackle a project like this Bob. Some tasks seemed daunting to me, but once I got in there and start cutting or welding metal or doing body work I got into a groove and started to get motivated about what I was doing. Now it has become fun (with some stress LOL) and I cannot wait to get this car finished. And when I do get bummed I just do this comparison and it motivates me again LOL. BEFORE :((n): [ATTACH type="full" alt="20200530_073135.jpg"]1722659[/ATTACH] AFTER :D(y): [ATTACH type="full" alt="20211003_114849.jpg"]1722661[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
