I like that white/black color combo. Are you planning on keeping the interior black? Great progress so far!

Hi All, Thanks for the feedback, I can use the support. I plan on keeping the car original with the Black interior. The only real mod I plan on is the radio which I already purchased the special din radio plate. I will however keep all the original components stored away for if I sell or return to original. I put a new gas tank in as well before they painted it.
