Good job though.

Were the factory plugs glass or steel? I was amazed when Ivor told me the noses and wings weren't glass, I just assumed they were :shock:

Factory Plugs and noses were steel and heavy, wings were cast aluminium, with steel braces in the trunk.

Looking good, Dave - I guess that one will have a Hemi in it? (out of your old GTX?) Keep the pictures coming.
