DinoByte,
Purchase from Jay at Vintage - you won't be disappointed.
I got mine from him (and I am over 3 hours away from his shop - I know that's a lot closer than you). Shaun (sfeakes) also got his from Vintage and he lives down in Texas.
While they are not within driving distance for you, at least you know (from this forum) that they will do all they can to talk you thorugh anything that needs to be done. What other Backdraft dealer is posting suggestions to owners on this site?
Also, they are easy to get in touch with and know the cars inside and out.
Regards,
Mike
