Agreed!ApproveSmileThere are certain advantages working on a project that wasn't original - such as completely changing all colors!

 Bob, do you have any pics of the new header install? I bet there's lots of folks here that would like to see, for one, where it is, and two, how it goes in. Lots of these cars have header rivet problems, so it would be kewl if you had some pics to share on yours. Thumbs Up

Didn't take nearly as many pics as I should have, but here is a few of what I do have

Worked a little more today.  Trying to decide if I should leave the chrome versus repainting.  Kind of like it, but certainly not original appearing.
