Haha- now, that is funny. They do have a certain 'look' to them. I will end up with a more traditional blank rotor when I final assemble- meanwhile, those are up for sale on the parts board... The parts have moved to the truck- they're piled in the bed

That's the last 'big' piece of the puzzle for the front suspension. Gotta order the Kore3 braided lines soon, too. I will definitely report on the steering gear- saw way too many bad reviews on AGR and ZERO complaints, nothing put praise for the RedHead- not to mention, they're only $215 compared to AGR's $350...

Big Thumbs up on that one!
Funny, when I first met my wife, we were walking along when a Porsche drove by and someone in our group commented on how nice it looked. My wife, without even thinking about it replies, "Yeah, it's nice, but I'd rather have a Shelby." I thought to myself, I'm totally marrying this chick!

Fast-forward to post wedding and we're walking around GoodGuys comparing 65-66 and 67-68 fastbacks to see which body style she likes better. We are standing near the back of a particularly nice '67 when she raises her hands, visually framing the rear of the car and says "Now, that's a nice ass." Needless to say, we're set on the 67-68 body style
