    Well, I know I can say that I haven't got gotten quite so far in a year and a month ownership of our coupe.

    A grand effort put in to get it like it is!

    You did an amazing job! That 86GT looks beautiful. All i can see missing are a fresh set of 5.0 emblems, otherwise its perfect. Great wheel choice amd whoever did your paint did a wonderful job. I hope my red 85 looks that good someday.

    Very well done.
    Cheers!

    The car looks great! Well done.

    Nicely done...Did you have to trim the new hood decal for it to fit on the cowl hood or did it fit? Or is it painted?
