Very nice. I bet he was only going to do the trailing arm bushes but while I am at it might as well do a resto mod .

Very nice. I bet that spoiler operated by vacuum.
What was the point of showing the engine being dynoed and not showing the figures?

I'm sure the owner wrote a hefty check to complete the build on this one.

With all the time they put into those sleek pods behind the seats, it looks kinda dumb with those giant seat backs. i wonder if the roof even fits now.

I agree, the seats just don't look right. I'd like to get a hold of the waterfall they made especially if it flips up so you can get in the back without opening the deck lid.
