    I finally brought the 5W home for the last time today.
    There's a decent sized punch list to do before it hits the road this Spring.
    The biggest of which is a leaky waterpump, and a noisy #3 hydraulic lifter.
    I also don't like th finish on the fan shroud, and will redo that to match the valve covers. It's got a great exhaust note, and overall I'm pretty freaking stoked. I'll keep you posted.
    Happy New Year to All.

    Happy New Year! The car is number one in my book. Lots of neat details that you don't see everyday.

    I normally stick to nut and bolt type cars "true to the era" but I've gotta say this car is one of my new favorites!! It's just so damn nasty and I think the entire car is well thought out and cohesive. It also is just a damn cool 5w with a big old hemi in it and slathered in black paint which is always just a great combo.

    Congrats!!!

    The wheels are from PS Engineering, and are powder coated in Antique Bronze, and them glass beaded at 20psi to tone them down.
