You bastard! just kidding. Now I have no chance of making it on the cover.... How long is it going to be till they put another procharged Pewter Trans Am on the cover.

Again, just joking. Your car looks amazing. I said it in your build thread early on that it looked like it was done at the factory. Everything was well thought out, every step planned and executed to the n'th degree. Nicely done.
