Default Must be the Finishline Headlight Ring!

I just received the Bugline headlight ring this morning and its not the right replacement. I am now going to order the Finishline product. Perhaps I should send them a picture of my good headlight ring with dimensions or review it with them over the phone prior to ordering!

The good news is BDR #101 is back on the road! The front end fiberglass body work and paint turned out fantastic! The radiator replacement that Reg sent had the same ID numbers but was 1 5/8 inches wider than the original radiator and the bottom hose outlet was several inches lower than the original. It took some surgery to the fiberglass mounting bracket and some serious searching for a bottom radiator hose, but everything assembled quite nicely. And now I have a bit more cooling capacity for the hot summer days here in Phoenix.

I put a new Mustang Cobra in my rear view mirror yesterday and it felt great! The chicks are back!
