BIG REDS wanna be Nick Cage Build thread.

it depends on where, like john said the trans uses rtv from the factory. If there is a gasket its replaced. I do not cut any corners when it comes to stuff like that. I replace stuff that doesn’t necessarily need replacing, but as long as I have stuff apart and have easy access to it its replaced anyway.

I scored the autometer monster tach with built in shift light on the local craigslist of all places for cheap.

and since I couldn’t find a grille that I was happy with I made one that has the correct amount of bars and spacing correct for the movie car.

front of the car with the temporary grille.spacing is off throwing off the whole front end

versus one of the original cars

and the one that I made for my car.It still has to be cut for the grille opening and polished/painted.
