                  Your attention to detail is incredible to say the least. Stunning is the word that comes to mind. Question bert, on the exhaust cutouts. Do you plan short turn downs, pipes out the side ?  Or leave as is. ?  Also are you using Vintage Air. Your A/C lines are a work of art.   :worshippy

    I am still waiting on the turn downs to come in. they are a very low profile so they wont catch on the road.
    yes it is a vintage air and thanks you

    Great car!!!  I love the color.  Love the suspension.  Love the engine!!  Your interior is super!  Awesome detail.  Great job! 

         Here is the big question.  Will you drive it?

    And who said that the only thing to do in Manitoba is to watch your dog run away for 3 days?! LOL That's an awesome build and I wish I was in the seat when you find a chunk of those flat and straight Manitoba roads and let 'er rip!!  :thumbsup:

    Simply amazing   :thumbsup:

    I wish I had the patience, skills, tools ... did I say patience? ... experience, knowledge, attention to detail ... I did say patience right? ....  :thumbsup:

    I'm always in awe of such attention to detail ... I wire up some gauges in 2 hours and tuck in wires .... and I'm exhausted ...  :rofl:

    Damn, this is one gorgeous car! Love the engine! One question though, what transmission does it have in there? I'm really interested in that, since I want an automatic with a lot of gears for my car

    It use to be a Keisler transmission but has been taking over by Silver sports

    You can order them for 3  different hp  options

    I see in your pictures that your transmission has an overdrive in every gear, is that standard on the A41?
