Well I got to see Brent's car in person over the weekend at the Berger Chevrolet Car Show and I can assure you guys there is a lot more detail there that can be captured in the pictures. I picked up a few new ideas to add to my own ride by looking at all the work he has done. Sweet car for sure!


BTW I really like your signature about the attitude adjustment! Ha Ha

Here is an appearance question I forgot to ask you on Sat. What is the length of your antenna? How is the radio reception now? What did you use to top it off? The original ball or a vaccum cap?

Thanks! Greg

I'm not sure how long it is...I've never measured it . I just cut it off using a dremel at the approximate height of the roof. I didn't have the patience to drill out the original ball, so I sanded and 'rounded' the newly cut end and repainted the ENTIRE antenna with a semi-gloss black.
