And a second for Paul's 3.6...

It is difficult to describe just how complete in detail this car is. The 3.6 has been integrated into the old chassis to such a level that the check-engine light has been installed in one of the stock guages. The paint is nothing short of perfect and since the whole front end is protected with clear bra it will likely stay that way. The interior has been subtly upgraded so that it appears stockish yet the carpet is luxurious, the seats are heated, the radio has been blanked but the car has hidden iPod tunes through modern speakers. If I had Paul's time and talent I would build a project not much different than this. Perhaps that is why I am so drawn to this car. Riding in this car is such a thrill we used it as an amusement park at a recent BBQ! Paul is a detail oriented guy and this car is a testiment to his attention to every detail...
