    The Ford green looks alot better than the Chevy orange, and the black Cal Custom valve covers add a distinguishing touch?...

    You haven't even drove the damn thing yet and you already took it apart to repaint.:) Isn't there a name for that affliction?
    BTW it does look much better.

    Definitely the green Larry! And the Generator looks SO much better than the other way. People who say generators don't work right just don't know what the hell they are doing!

    I wouldn't say the first one sucked Larry, but it does look better. I also like that you painted the air cleaner. Nice!

    Looks better but the air cleaner needs to be a lighter color.

    Funny part is your trunk has more shiney shit than under the hood. The only bling under the hood is those freeze plugs :)
