Geez Joe...you're always upgrading. Didn't know your Vic could get any sexier. Your Vic already looks better than most Marauders, let alone CV's.
I might have to come up to MI one day just so I can dry hump your car.

Bobert2647 - Just curious, how is a cowl hood improve performance if any? I know it's going to add the "looks" factor a bit.
No performance gains perse, however, I am anticipating heat extraction capability.

The delays have all been weather related .....
- storm knocked-out power for a couple of days.
- brown-outs fried a couple of their 220V equipment ( air compressor, welder, etc. ).
- and last but not least, the humidity has been high for the past week. *Because of the mix of materials ( fiberglass, sheet-metal, filler ) and their expansion/contraction differences, they can't bake it; ergo, air drying.
Since I did mention that their name would appear on a marquee when I show the car, they're paying attention to detail.
