Connected the clutch last weekend and started her up. Took her around the block a few times , but I only have headers on so far and it is pretty loud. Hoping to get the exhaust installed next weekend.

I'm sure your neighbors will appreciate that.   :grinyes:

That is one sweet looking car you have there! You can't ignore a black on black car, that for sure.

Here is a video my wife shot from her phone after the first test drive. I think you can make out some car alarms in the background:

That is friggin awesome. Love the alarms too. I used to drive by a sensitive jeep on the way home and punch it when I drove by in order to set it off. It brings a smile to my face thinking about it.  :bigsmile:
