[QUOTE="hokie_yj, post: 474852, member: 4238"] In case you were wondering this build isn't totally dead. Lol. I have been working on it a bit lately when I have the time. I've gotten a few things done Moscow it hasn't been very pic-worthy though. I did finally get the driver's side header fit up. It's really tight, but it's in there.
