Stopped at the Body shop today....Doors in primer......George, the Artist doing the body work on the car ended up cutting out and rebuilding the Trunk channel seal area because it didn't meet his standards.......Great to have someone who cares working on the car.....

Can you tell me more about the 90º elbow in the air intake? Where did you get it and can I find the dimensions for it? I'm using an LS1 in my '32 Coupe project and room is very tight between the throttle body and radiator, I need to relocate the MAF and filter element. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cable release mechanism is from a Hyundai.....it has two levers, one for the trunk and one for the Hood......it's mounted behind the drivers seat against the rear quarter....
