Nice work! I'm curious about the exhaust. In the first pic both sides are exiting through the body on the passenger side. In the following pics it looks like you have built some really nice headers exiting under the car. I'm curious because I want to make crossover headers for my next build.

ThirdGear- As I am want to do at times, I "changed my mind" and took out the old exhaust and ran it through the door. Solder is the exhaust builder's friend so I tend to fiddle around some when I get to that part.

I would like to see detail pics of those headers if you have them. I'm looking into making some from 14g craft wire.

That is a great looking Regal, excellent work! I'm looking forward to seeing it with the raised rear end.

I added an album to my Fotki page that showed much of the fab work and buildup on this. It was completed as a Junior Hanley build.

Great build, David. I went to your FOTKI album and saw some GREAT builds. I also went to your personal album and saw your wonderful Family pis. You wouldn't happen to be the guy with the long mustache?
