Thanks Joe, you had a hand in it

Mike-thanks for the clarification on Ohio...I will go 50% as I don't want a reason to be pulled over....

Ryan/Jimmy, we talked about the mirrors but for some reason didn't do them, now I wish I would have, maybe later..not going to worry about it right now.....

BS....going to have to deal with it, no plans on dropping it.........I don't mind the 4 X 4 look, it has never bothered me and I don't want to sacrifice the ride quality, if it even has ride quality now.... I am not saying I will never drop it, just not in the plans anytime soon..........it is still lower than my truck..... I am getting old and the lower the car is, the lower I have to get my fat azz down....

it shouldn't be the getting down that low it should be the getting back up. you'll have to roll out of the car and get a cane to help you up

Sometime this weekend I hope, it will either be the rims......if I make it to the tire store tomorrow, or the wing and scoops late Sunday or Monday.....

Just got off the phone with a fellow car enthusiast at wUnderCarParts.com , ordered the Flowmaster cat back. I liked the way my dumps sounded but did not like the drone and fumes.....so decided to go FM out the back. gonna ditch the Borlas side exhaust....

I want to share with the group that I spoke with JJ up in Detroit at the above company, we talked about his Coronet resto and he looked on this thread to see the car.....man it is great when you call a company these days and actually get a cool person that will treat you right and shoot the bull with you for a few minutes, made my morning ...thanks to JJ for the time and order help.

I will post a before and after vid of both exhausts for comparison purposes......

Please get springs. It is ruining the look and all that money you are spending.
