As long as you got no exhaust leaks, you're good.

Brian, I love it!
After bilateral hip replacements, bilateral carpal tunnel surgeries and a tooth implant I'm not sure I can still lay claim to the "unrestored" part!

The junkyard artist is bill Macgregor and a V8 guy. He does a lot of different things. When the TSA incident happened and the guy saying, "don't touch my junk" went viral, I contacted Bill and said he needs to do a t shirt like that. He said he was on the fence about doing it but his wife told him to go for it. Said it became his best selling shirt and he gifted me one.

Bill has also done artwork for our club for decades now. He did the t shirts for our Saratoga meet. One of the nicest guys you could meet.
