The rear holds up real well, takes any abuse i throw at it with ease. I know a guy who builds rears for a living, he's down in florida. He happened to be up here on vacation when i blew up my 7-1/4 and installing this one, before i put it all together I had him come over enjoy a nice cold beer and look everything over. He says its a real strong rear. that i would be able to throw a lot at it and it will chew it up and spit whatever back at me! Everyone prefers a 489 casing and 742's but hey for the price i scored everything at I cant complain at all.
Looking good Joe.I love the idea of the 69 Valiant grill,it sure will make it look like a 1 of car.Maybe try some of the 0000 super fine steel wool with some compound on the bumper.Good Luck.
