It is still a work in progress, but we're getting there.

First, here's some beautiful pieces from Austin and Tate at vetteorama.com:








Second, from Tracy and Greg at kewlauto.com, some luscious painted covers








And who can forget Bill and Brenda at creativeenginecovers.com, and Jason (cajondude) at gulfcoastperformance.com for the shiney chromed bling:









A huge Thanks to all of these vendors for some very beautiful products...more to follow

Looks good, i reaaly like the engraved stainless steel pieces.

Personaly I would of stuck with one colour instead of the red/blue combo especaily with the stainless steel items.

Sharp looking engine bay...

The tank covers from kewlauto look great. Considering them myself. Did they also do the Fuel Rail Covers?
