It was hard not to throw rpm arms on it, I still may. It would be a better fit but haven't decided yet
This was pretty much a car where era didn't matter as much to me as that the parts were available in 2013 or reproduced in 2013. The exception are the Thorpe turnbuckles but they look like DuBro :mrgreen:
It will also get a rpm shorty bumper. I know my logic is odd but I like it hahaha

Something clever goes here...

Use polished silver washers with your purple screws, that should set them off nicely against the black without making the car even darker.
