hahah thanks!! That's what I was going for...I'm not a huge fan of chrome anyway but once it's all together with the interior and lights and everything when I pop the hatch I wanted it to look as mean as possible..have a new scoop for the carbs and still need to paint those but I'm hoping it all turns out how I see it in my head lol

I do have the new carpet in which you can slightly see in the interior pic of it tore apart I think....the piston, valve, and rockers were all after the first run thanks to the sh!tty head guy at the motor shop but they stood behind it and completely went through the entire motor again, new piston, new rockers, new taller poly locks, and all new ferrea valves with a new head guy since they fired the old one because of this. He never checked the guides before assembly and one stuck causing this so they put all new guides in as well. That's why I didn't get to use it at all last summer by the time all this got straightened out. Just fired her up for the first time a few weeks ago and before I could even set the timing the sea water pump smoked so still waiting to fire it and tune it...its been too damn cold to do anything here in good ole Michigan haha. Anyhow here's some more pics....
