Re: Presenting:

The head light covers are plastic. They are made by a company named Wade. The covers no not flip up. I made some brackets to mount them to and used 3M heavy duty velcro to attach them to the brackets. That way I can easily remove them for night driving.

Re: Presenting:

That thing is slick bro. Pure beauty. You need some clear or smoked marker light covers though that and probably with a blown 383 youll need a bar at some point lol. Dont worry I probably will as soon as mine lives again.....

Re: Presenting:

The smoked side marker lights is a good idea. I'm glad you mentioned it, I never thought about it. And it will have a cage before it see anymore track time.

Re: Presenting:

I do not remember the particulars, but it is a Griffin aluminum radiator. It is larger than the factory radiator so I had to remove the lower radiator support and fabricate a new one to make it fit.
