Well for entertainment I figured I would post a few pictures of my coupe that I recently completed. Okay, it is 99% complete and I will be working on the 1% the rest of the winter :D But it is ready to be driven ASAP. I started it last year in the summer; so with some time off for a few international trips it took roughly a year to complete. It has a fuel injected 425 HP 347 with a TKO-500 trans. Painted base/clear in the garage which I think came out pretty good. I just need to buff it one more time. I decided not to mount the scoops and spoiler, as I was going for a cleaner look with less drag. The side pipes I had chromed at Ogden Chrome in Utah; they are a work of art. Anyway, hope you enjoy the pictures. At some point I will take a few glamour shots.
Cheers,
Rob

"clean" is the correct word - very excellent job! Now I am considering the same color as yours. My original plan has been white body, gray or red stripes - but now need to consider the reverse...

Thank you. As far as windows go, I am not putting them on....the next guy can do that :) Plus it rarely rains in southern Idaho, so who needs them anyway.

Oh yeah, the base color was Limco Supreme, Dark Metallic Charcoal. I splurged for the Glamour clear.....about$200 per gallon. I do not remember off hand the color of the stripes.
