The purple block and heads will contrast well wth the high gloss back, then polished chrome rocker covers, aircleaner, alternater and water pump and then to give it an extra oldschool tough look replace all the pullys with a gilmer belt drive :smokin: , will tidy it up nicely.

ps, whats with the messy as wires :rolleyes:
