So this has been an idea for several years, and parts were assembled over time. But on the way home from the JCCS show, a decision was made, and the trigger was pulled. Get it done for the Williams, AZ show..

2 weeks...

We started with Kevin's 67.5 2000 and a '66 frame..

I have trouble with the photo attachments, so this thread will have one photo per post..

Anyway, we went out to my container and grabbed my original SR20DE.. Gave it a once over to degrease and then some make-up to make it pretty..
