Trase states that it's an ugly dress. I would agree with her.

It drives pretty good, but havent really had time to really mess with it. I used it as the drive away vehicle on the wedding day so I was very careful not to really push it before the wedding so it would be ready for that. In general it drives fine but I am still a little unsure about the power steering pump and the pulley on there, just feels kind of weird. I either need to get a custom pulley made or change the snout to get the 8rib stuff right, but I have some wedding bills to pay before anything
