Daytime Car and engine bay pics!!!

Well finally got around to getting some daytime pics, the front wheels look dirty from brake dust but i had just cleaned them a couple days ago which sucks, the chrome really shows the dust badly, i also need to get some side profile pics but these are good ones. My paint is probably going to get some sort of 2 tone pin stripe to help break up the black and orange some more and kinda of go against the harley look...not a bad thing just want to seperate it a bit more. Probably going to do either stainless PONTIAC letters and corsa style tips down the road and finally it needs to be wet sanded and buffed out.

Engine bay has a few things left, im getting some FRC's soon and a stainless radiator support, both of which will definitely add to the appearance, i also plan to eventually relocate my battery. Cowl will be cleaned up and painted and my intake bolts wich i stupidly ground all the zinc coating off of are going to be replaced...probably with stainless bolts so they dont rust like they are doing now. Let me know what you guys think

Clean up those exhaust tips. Be proud of owning the best sounding exhaust ever.

Looks sweet. Love the !WIRE and everything. Not really feeling the two tone but nice car, you've tied everything in well.

Yea, when i had the engine out we blocked off the hole for the fuel lines and cut a small one behind the old location and they go behind the brake booster.

Thanks for all the compliments guys
