I like it. Just a small upgrade, but it's the little things that add up.

Also received my OEM Roof rack from Jeff (AZPartslocator) and got the proper Nutserts to install it. Gonna go lay it all out today and do a couple practice nutserts on a piece of scrap to get it down right...

Other things of note... Wheels from Wheel Vintiques arrived, and I promptly dropped them off at Les Schwab for powdercoating. It'll be a week or two before i get them back... but here's a sneak peek! (This one was a spare for Sweet Pea, but it won't be long now!
What nutsert tool are you going to use? I got a basic set-up from my local 'above average' hardware chain for <$10 vs the commonly IG marketed tool (which won't fit in half the places you need it to).

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
