74Javelin, the motor in your sig is the sex!
I jerry rigged myself an exhaust today, should be able to get some tuning done, at least should be able to get myself to a competent muffler shop...
Here is another shot. I primered my beast and threw a flat black rattle can stripe on it, just to see if its a look I want to go with.
I just put down my deposit on an 05 GT :^) Look out August here we come.

Yup. Got my 442 3 years ago. So far weve put a new radiator, 2 starters, hoses... Previous owner had redone motor and bored out 30 over.
I am going to do the rest with my cash. Needs an aluminum radiator, new performance rotors and calipers all around, high performance starter (others were OEM garbage, bleh!), build up tranny, completely clean out the engine compartment (previous owner used electric tape alittle too much), redo suspension (bushings, shocks, springs), paint, and interior.
Im going to go throw up now
Oh yea, forgot to add in the Edelbrock Olds performer kit - heads, carb, headers, cam. Clean valve cover dress up, new paint on (old stuff is just peeling!), headers...
Basically, do the motor up with go fast parts.
3 inch stainless exhaust with X pipe finishing touch.
