That looks great! I've been debating the 5.0 emblems...I think they fit perfect on your car. It's nice to see other people spending their time and money to bring these aging cars back to the life they deserve.

i think the best builds are the ones with a story behind them. I'm sorry to hear about your cousin, but you're doing a good thing to keep his memory alive. props, man.

Looks great! You took something doomed for the junkyard and turned it into a true show car. I'm very impressed!

Honestly, I'd buy the springs, headers, x-pipe used. Those are parts that will end up looking like used parts in no time and you won't really see them that often. The used midpipe/headers can be blasted/painted or cleaned with chemicals to be restored. Just ask mikey94gt on how that turns out.

Paul from Arizona can get you a NICE, CNC machined gauge panel for $65 I believe. No plastic to break there!

There are better choices for cold air intakes (AFM Power pipe, www.TunableInduction.com, or you can make your own) If you plan on pushing for more power with heads/cam/intake (like I suspect you may) you would have better results with a larger CAI.

I have a total of four billet gauge plates left. I have one 3-gauge plate, and three 2-gauge plates. If you want one, you can send me a PM. They're $67.95 shipped to the lower 48 states, and a bunch of guys on the forum have them now. These are the last of them, and I think it's very unlikely my friend will make any more.
