Wow Dave, what a response you have had with this project.Can I add my 2 cents worth please? Okay I can then, first, I think the steel tilt front with the separate opening bonnet is the way to go.. I also like the idea of the EFI fuel system looking like the early Hilborn injection as one can't bet 8 pipes sticking through a bonnet. The rest I think all the others have nailed for you. Oh one last thing Dave, Pepper looks like one mean guard dog and as Don said... the odd picture of him and or guard cat will keep us happy while following your build thread.
Cheers Whiplash...
