Looks like I'm going to have to invest in some nice polishing tools...

Thanks. That's correct!

Thanks, it's quite heavy. I'm going to have to come up with some strong automotive adhesive to attach it.

My guess is to add black paint based on page 28 post 676

Thanks! I think it depends on how you have your personal settings that determines the number of posts on each page.

Rob, that is slick! Can't wait to see some updated pics of it on the Burb.

Thanks Nate. This piece and the side trim will probably be the last thing I put on.

Thanks. I was shooting for the Power Tour, but I've been busy job hunting so I may have to drive the 68 on the Tour and take the Burb to CTC.

OK, for the updates.

1. Fuel filler and vent connected.
2. New brakes installed (still need to connect the front brake lines)
3. All air ride installed including the level sensors (minor wiring left)*
4. Power steering lines connected.

* The only way I can describe the AccuAir system is..... FREAKIN AWESOME! There may be equivalent systems out there, but I doubt you will find any that are better.

What's next?

1. Wire the motor
2. Wire everything else
3. Mount radiator and fans
4. Mount a/c condensor and run lines
5. Mount supercharger intercooler
6. Glass ordered and should be installed next week.
7. Install gauges
8. Install tilt column
9. Make brackets for rear buckets (and then have them reupholstered)
10...................

Enough of that. Here are some pictures, .
