I have one that looks very similar that I finished in Dec. I know exactly how you feel and it feels GOOD. It makes me smile every time I look at it. Be sure to enjoy it every day.

That engine looks sooo good you should put it in the middle of your living room and charge admission to see it. It could pay for itself.

That looks incredible and I understand completely. I've been smiling all day as I picked up my engine (for my 63) from the rebuilder this morning (block and heads) and had to just set the Fuelie unit on it just to see what it looked lilke and take a picture. Been smiling since.

Congrats: :cheers:
