    The original system, its just that every single part from steering to suspension was replaced with reproductions parts. What wasnt reproduced I waited and bought NOS from ebay.

    That looks great. It looks like the same color as mine. Ford calls it light green. I thought it was yellow until I got it under flouresent lights at a small indoor show. It is strange how it looks more green every day. I like it. Nice job.:thumbs2:
