Thanks Buddy

I am pretty sure that even the NCRS crown would not want me to cut up an original pair!

Got the Rocker Moldings cut & Installed; I think I may have solved most of the coolant leak issue (time will tell). I am still chasing a VERY small oil leak.. Looks like the pan gasket, or one of the bolts is weeping. About 3 or 4 drops after I park it.

Here are a few pics..................

























Thanks for all the interest and support!!
