I think he's more scary then ugly. Well OK, maybe ugly and scary. I would be afraid of catching some wicked sickness from an ugly beast like that.

I have a system like that on my 33 Ford. It has a Ron Francis wiring system in it and the system is available thru them. Believe me, it cost considerably more the $65.00 from them.
