Engine is being difficult. The intake is way too tall so I modified the single carb intake. Nothing seems to go together very well. I'm not very impressed with any of the '68 kit...
Added distributor & wires, fuel line from pump to carbs...

Tiny update. Been giving paint time to harden before polishing, but here are the wheels. They still need a little touching up but look pretty good to me...

Looks sweet! Those wheels make my eyes bleed thinking of getting the paint in that outer groove.
