Followup: GA Mechanic..Pics of work I am completing..

Here are some pictures of a job I am completing for Mike Dodson...

A brand new streetport..

And no, I didnt just hose it off to make it wet so it would shine....

I polished the aluminum and other non-painted surfaces.

All painted and polished surfaces are permanently shiney thanks to clear epoxy.

He'll keep that factory paint (and all those painted assembly marks) forever!

:Pictures from start to now (tomorrow we DRIVE)...

I have a 1991 GXL Coupe coming in this week for a swap too...

Anyone else need sumpin' fixed??!?!

So that's why a header is worth soooo much HP.

Here it is. I never saw one completely out in the open before. Talk about bad flow.
