Thanks again guys. Corpo, hopefully i can resist the urge to sell this one. I'm going to license it this weekend so i can drive it for awhile. Got a 30 sedan waiting. My son wants it to be a rusty rat.

love the car, looks perfect.

drive the bejesus out of it.

as to the vibe, if it's between 55 + 65mph it's likely tire balance.

any other speed and it points to driveshaft angle or phasing.

if you can make it vibrate in neutral when revving the motor it could be a bad damper or flywheel.

peace, love, and happy motoring.
