Like one of these?

Been on there the whole time to help keep those main caps in place.

The car has a 3 series carrier - could have gone to a 4.10 gear (and may have been the better choice given the probability of putting in a T56 in the next year) but the 3.73 should be a decent gear for the track & highway with the current combo.

Yeah, it wasn't the end of the world and agreed, the car combo is not bad to drive around and still looks good! I debated getting the ramp truck painted the same color but not sure it would really look that good. Also though about reversing it and doing Forest Green strips on a cowl hood. May just leave it alone.... I do know A/C is getting installed before this summer!!
