Thanks for the compliments everyone. Period correct, longevity and drivability are the largest goals of the build. Hopefully it will stay with the family a long time, with only weekend DQ run duties while Clapton is playing. Original items will be saved if 'bolt on' items are added in the event 100% accuracy is the goal later in life.
SD isn't too far away from me, good to know there are others in the area.
This forum is great for information and serves it's purpose well. Thank you.
