No chrome on this one. We finally got the firing order right on the engine and it's running nice. The big projects left are the running boards and rear bumper. We hope to get to some Ohio/Michigan shows by early summer. Last edited by Peggy M; 05/08/2024 5:49 PM. Reason: added more info to the title
