That was taken last may fast forward the body is on for the last time w brake lines and fuel lines run all new, only had to move one set of mounts for the tub to work, I’m skeptical about the glass but I’ll appreciate it being a new Englander , don’t mind the wire debocal I am going to get a painless kit for it , it’s somewhat of a necessity exspeciall seeing as they run grounds for everything in their harness

I do regret not having a tailgate however

It might also be easier to heat the cabin area in the winter, you don't have all that cold metal surrounding you

I hope it will I would like to drive it in the winter

Lot of money for an ignition system but I can vouch for the MSD box it works great, I used the stock distributor with an 6AL box on my 258

It runs way better, on my 258 it would die on me at the stop light with the FoMoCo ignition box I wired the 6AL box to the stock distributor and it would keep the motor running at stop lights, it was kinda annoying to have to crank the motor back up at every stop light I was very happy with that ignition box lol I was able to get quite a few more miles out of that motor before I swapped to the V8
