It was mine and the builders goal to not over build,or end up with agaudy, rough riding, LT1 powered,trailer queen.The small craftsman's details can be missed by the averageeyesuch as filled in side marker lights and door lock, production crease lines filled in both front and back, hood mating sections filled in, fire wall smoothed, ARP stainless 12 point hardware throughout,and fuse box and wiring hidden from view while body gaps are excellent.New school eye candy detailwith old school comfort. No kidney beltjarring ride, no roll cage or cutting up this pristine unibody and frame. This is a canyon carving, Sunday driving, take the trophy home show car! The odometer states 3,841 miles however the true mileage on this buildis 1,845. I had to drive it to the Good Guys Show in Del Mar and my local shows.....right?
