This may sound strange coming from a guy to a guy but...that's the nicest rear end I've ever seen. Great job!!!!
 
Thanks for the kind words guys!

Yellow77: Bring your car up to Maine and I would be glad to =) this project was more fun then rebuilding the engine.

vette737: I used Rustoleum for almost everything, the Red is Hightemp engine paint, I used that so the red would match my engine, but also to make sure the heat from the rear didn't cause the paint to flake off (probably was over kill to use the heat paint though)

Peer81: Sorry to hear about your diff, the only pic I have of the inside on my computer is this one: http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/chaynes/inrear.jpg
I know I have more at home but I won't be back there until next weekend.
