James-Fantastic job on the engine bay-great detail with the wiring & plumbing and slightly weathered.  Can't wait to see more progress pics.

Question-what did you use for your spark plug wires?

Bob

Does the kit come with a resin Daisy Duke?

...Hopefully from the original T.V. series and not the reunion show...Hmm

Anyhow progress looks great!
