Very nice indeed! I really like the red/white/black theme you have going on Mike. Did you source the ali screws from AE or did you get them from one of the bulk online fastener suppliers? Also, do you have a body and paint theme in mind yet?

I guard my stash of NOS AE 8-32 screws like they're early RPM ball cups. :lol:
