Welp figured the car would draw in the sweeties but didn't think it'd be this quick or that young.......
Pipes look very nicely done. Did you buy them from a vendor and have them assembled on the car at Paul's place or did a guy just make them all up from scratch and do the work? If the latter, guys that can do that kind of quality, specialty work are few and far between anymore.

The exhaust looks very well done. Would it have had resonators originally?

The seats even recline! Looking awesome, Paul has to be close to finishing. What about you deadline of the 20th, did you get your extension? Or was that the extension?

Nice, I'm still trying to wrap my brain around how that exhaust even works going through the leafs and close to the rear tires.
Couple of questions about the seats, did the passenger seat always recline, or is that modified? Also on the passenger seat, should there be a finish plate along the base like the drivers side, or did manual seats not have that?

Pass Seat always reclined...may b a cover for bottom of pass seat...Paul may have not put it on yet or was missin and not with car
Exaust works....most go the other route because it's easyer and cheaper but you see pipes....didn't wana see that crap hanging under car so we went the route we did...bottom line we took the extra step to get a clean refined look

That's the best kind of sweetheart to attract.
I've only seen one other person run their tailpipes like that.

I disagree and am probably the only one here but far be it from me to hold my breath. The way I see it, a couple of hundred pounds in the trunk a couple passengers and a hard bump or a dip in the road and you crush a pipe . That is why they are not routed that way from the start.

nope....they did it that way because it was cheaper....you collapse a spring that far exhaust will be the least of yer problems...

You can think that I guess if you want to, you'd be wrong in that presumption

It looks clean and obviously , time went into it but under the shock and over the spring is a recipe for disaster. Maybe not for this car as it will probably be pampered but in everyday normal driving , especially when they were built , that pipe wouldnt last. Especially when it is behind the wheel with snow, ice and leaves kicking up on it.
