Well, took me long enough to get some pics uploaded. These aren't even the most recent. I now have the vinyl Super Sport decals on the doors as you can see in the Atco Raceway pics. But, you can kinda see the pearl in the paint.

The stripes are painted on, not that sticker shit. I did all the paint and body. I rented a buddies paint booth to paint it, (thanks Kevin @ Touch of Class in Bensalem). So check em out and rate me up!

The door decals are the same lettering as on the tailgate, just bigger. Check the Atco page to see what it looks like.

Looks good, liquidh8! It's nice to see someone else besides me knows that the A6 compressor common on G-bodies works with the older big block A/C brackets. I'm keeping my A/C too. LS6 Tommy

Hey man you live right around me and it would be cool if I could see how you got a big block to fight into the Elky
