    This car has eyeball. Everywhere I look at it, it is built like I would have done it and I'm pretty damned particular.There is only one thing I would change and that's the air cleaners. In my opinion, they're too small to be able to pass enough air when you've got the loud pedal matted.

    Thank you Sir !! Have any specific air cleaner you could suggest? I'm not sure at the moment how much clearance I have to the hood. My Dad had the hood raised a little.(Didn't want a big hood scoop) but in the end he said it would have been ok stock. I really like what he did with the hood.

    Question about long term storage. I work overseas so I'm only home every 3 to 4 months for 2 weeks. Any suggestions of what I should do about fuel in the tank and carbs. I love my kids but they're all in their 20's and I don't really want to leave the keys with them. I was 20 awhile back..
