Gear drive,,, love it or hate it. Heres a couple links to one on a 82 GT.
Mac headers:

Don't take your car to this place to get the radiator support fixed. Other than that the car is super straight.

So now I'm thinking of cutting the lower radiator support off and going with a "custom" job. I have a used Griffin radiator (Griffin part# 1-86272-X, 2 row, 1.5, 31x19") which is big and doesn't mount up to the stock brackets anyway.
Here are some ideas.

The Gillespie paint arrived today and the Aluma Hyde II (used on firearms).
I've been reading up rolling the paint and I think thats the way I'm going to go. The Gillespie was made to be rolled or sprayed so I'm just going to roll it and be done. Here are a few websites that talk about rolling your car (although they are all shiny paint jobs)
Rickwrench, Alfa GTV, Falcon Squire, Corvair

Rollering Interlux Brightside Polyurethane Paint - Car Painting
Spokane Hot Rod Association: My $26 vette paint job
I used the Aluma Hyde OD green and gray on the two Steeda adjusters I have. The pics aren't the best, I need lighter background but you get the idea. It gives a real nice flat color, high speed-low drag on the cheap.
And how the 93 sits right now. Once I pull the rear I need to power wash the undercarriage and figure out if I want to paint under there or not:
***edit*** some eagle eyes gave me shit about the Huggies so heres the website since I'm adding links: http://www.huggiesbabynetwork.com/
