Thanks guys!

Sorry Candi, the fire extinguisher was something my dad had picked up and I don't know where. And I can't exactly ask him :cry:

your car is looking cool man Candi was logged in when I asked but I am sure I can locate one, it just looks nicer than the ones I have seen at parts stores.
probably a speed shop will have them.

I don't think it would be too hard to find one. Maybe look online at Summit Racing and Jeggs.

I will probably get a new one but I really want to have this one mounted to the car for some reason.

At car is coming up! I'd swith all the nobs and collars to black! It would contrast well, and look more outlaw....

Well, I guess I will be rebuilding my engine a little sooner than I had thought, lol. the tranny locked up today so it needs to come out, might as well re-do the engine while its out. Not sure what's up with the tranny, its locked up and wont come out of gear. the shifter feels all wonky too.
The engine will be getting a bigger crank, bigger cam, bigger heads, Pauter 1.5 rockers, IDAs, and a bigger exhaust. should be considerably quicker, lol
