Looking proper Awsome dude.

Would look spot on with some spacers and dropped an inch.

Maybe a zook grill badge with the letters in blue?

got myself a car hole!
Image

renting a garage right next to where i work so i can take the hard top of at home and leave the car safe tucked away in my garage all day with the roof off. cool right!

was also wondering...
my engine smokes quite a lot when i boot it (put my foot down) is this more likely to be the rings or the PCV valve? i imagine if it where the pcv valve it would smoke bad all the time?

and when i take my hard top roof off i find a lot of water sitting inbetween the rubber and the metal. i imagine the rubber has become porus or something. has anyone else had/overcome this problem before?

Cheers guys!
