The cool thing about a Day 2 car, they are never done. They most always continue to evolve.

Of course, is any project car ever "done"?

True on all accounts. I understand most of this stuff is way over restored/thought out for most "real" "Day 2" cars but if I lived back then and had the money/knowledge/time to do it like this, this is what it what it would've been

It looks like a street "Panther", on the prowl for it's next drag race meal... This is a super cool pic and angle.
Owning another LA, Granada Gold '67, you have set the bar very high for what I hope for with mine.

This car takes me back to the mid-late 60's when make it faster was all that mattered, wrinkle wall slicks would make it complete for me. I can picture trolling 4th St. for the next victim.
When the Yenko cars arrived in town we didn't give much notice knowing they were no challenge for our home built hot rods.

Nice work Chuck!

Here's the goods Tim... I made cardboard template then got some scrap aluminum and put it in my father in laws brake. Bent it at a 65* angle and drilled some holes for the filter and the pump. I will mostly hardline this to make for a cleaner install. I think it will most likely be a straight old school draw through system meaning the fuel will always be drawn through the pump whether it's on or off. The pump is a Carter 4600HP rated at 50 gallons/hour and 4.5-8psi.
