    The car is looking good, the street required equipment hasn't distracted from the overall killer look the car has, well done!

The CC baffle rings are something like 14 gauge metal, which is pretty thin. It might not be an issue with the smaller diameter tube/baffle interface, but I ended up trashing my CC baffles and making some from scratch using heavier materials.
    Time will tell. I'll probably start the car next week. There's not much to them for $50 a piece. My problem with them is they're not square. If made properly, there's no reason they couldn't slide in and out easily.

    Alabama has a requirement for exhaust to be baffled without excessive noise.

    Every motor vehicle shall at all times be equipped with a muffler in good working order and in constant operation to prevent excessive or unusual noise and annoying smoke, and no person shall use a muffler cut-out, bypass, a muffler without baffles or similar device upon a motor vehicle on a highway.

    I might slide by?

    I'm ready to ride! I've applied for the Chattanooga World of Wheels 11-13 January 2013. If accepted, you know I'll post pictures!

    I agree with Dave. Nice engineering on the headlight mount behind the shell.
