Look great, I like the colour
0,1 % of the missing parts is the chromframe and the 427 plates on the hood ?

It came with the early 69 silver painted grills (in a box) but the left and right had warped slats so replaced and painted. They look fantastic

You might want to get a pro photographer to do a complete set for the car...before being driven. Going for an NCRS award?
Lifes too short to trailer a car. I built this car to drive and will carry the required insurance to cover may azz. Great suggestion to take pics now though

Wow, looks amazing. Am I right that that has to be a 400HP car? I was thinking the 435HP tri-powers were not available with A/C.
