thats cool, i would love to have fiberglass parts for weight purporses, but i dont think they'd be safe in an accident :( . sounds like your 66 is coming along alright haha youve got alot of mods. good luck with the body work, btw where did you buy your hood?
 
I bought the hood from NPD.

DO NOT BUY A HOOD FROM NPD. I am not going to get into the big, long synopsis, but, just dont buy one from them.

I have some pics of the suspension and trans, I think I posted them a while back.
