Trial fit of electric heated fronts, bit of fabrication do do on the bottoms but do look well. And inner rear side pannels.... That was about it today, the pub was calling, well we deserved a christmas session and its Ds birthday so we got changed at lunch and hit the town. And boy what a session that was!!

Thank god its a Pontiac and a 455 at that. It should have some letters stamped on top, maybe YE, WM...which will show if a HO motor or not. As you probably know, my 400 in the blue car originally was destined for your Le Mans, got it off the same bloke.
