Really really like it!  If you can smoke the tail lights a little, and then a little tint, it's Darth Vaders muscle car.  Looks very cool..

I work near Lancaster, PA. That's about as Amish as it gets for a hotrod. It would look good with tinted taillamps.

I don't know...."Amish" and "Hot Rod"-- together in a sentence??? LOL
By the way, did you powdercoat those bumpers, or paint them?  Mine are temporarily painted (to see "the look"), but I think they will be powdercoated when I finish the car:

I think that looks really tough, better than mine. I only primed and painted mine because of surface rust. Low budget cruiser.

That's pretty much what I did with mine, and I left the bolts chromed for detail effect...but it will be powdercoated or painted with a rubberizing agent to reduce chips/nicks...
