The engine bay was done by me, all of it. It’s not a SEMA build and I don’t want to represent it as one. But it’s clean, and it looks great in person (if you squint)

The car does have dings, scuffs, scratches, and imperfections !!!!!!
It looks fantastic on the gram, on the face space, and through your phone. It’s an absolute driver boys and girls.

IT IS NO WHERE IN THE VICINITY OF PERFECT. The car is 40 years old.

I have a lot of documentation and receipts for the motor that will go with the car.
