I dunno. I got nearly the same muffler on my car, as a standalone behind a RB header. It's a hair loud, but I'm an old guy, so I'm a hair deaf.........

The 7 on the hood is a nice touch. It doesn't look over done.

The wife and I are really wanting to move back to Montana, ASAP. I was wondering if I should bring my 7 along. I guess the answer is a definite.

Hell Yeah!!!

Your ride looks sweeet!!

Very nice. Reminds me of my first 79 with 13" gotti (some of you maybe too young to know what it is). Yeah, ditch the fart can and switch to 84-85 front suspension for top end.

Absolutely beautiful!

The fit and finish of interior around the third link shows the creativeness and attention to detail that went into the entire car.

Great job.

Thats one of the best looking first gens I've seen. I like the gauges, exhaust, and the stance of the wheels is amazing!

Flares, headlight, and air dam are absolutely sick! As well as the third link poking up through the interior, and the interior inserts.

Amazing work!
