Nice - but Mark's Custom Kits is overpriced.  I looked into their stuff
when I had an '87 Firebird a few years ago.  

Had a chance at one point to buy one of the "show cars" (as theirs was, 
before restoration) - for only $5K.  I can't believe they've done $35K of
work to the car.

I do have to say - nice end result, though.  Too bad its illegal to drive 
in Texas and Oklahoma (red flashing lights on the front, and the steering
"wheel"..)
