Thanks, man. I'm so psyched. I'm sitting here doin' that man thing; you all know it.

You get a cup of Joe, go into the garage, sit and just stare at it, and grin.

Yep. Usually in a tilted back chair with my feet on the work bench

Looks like "old school" aluminum mags, hooker headers/sidepipes and an aftermarket hood. ( looks familar but can't remember manufacturer )

On the hood, does that hood go up against the windshield or is your wiper door there?

If you are going to rebuild the brakes yourself, if they have stainless steel sleeves you're good to go. If they're original (no S/S sleeves ) I would trade ( core ) them for sleeved calipers. Flush the system and use DOT 5 brake fluid.

The hood goes all the way to the windscreen. I have two cowls, and the stock hood coming with the parts tomorrow.
