project go for broke 70 chevelle
Well looks like the bug has bit me hard and I am starting another project!
just wanted to clear the air first and clarify who is e.rodz customs e.rodz is NOT a business this is just a couple of of friends and my son who is now 13 years of age who just want to build some really cool stuff! my goal is to build 10 super cool rodz. the first one was my work truck I sold a barret jackson years ago. The second was going to be my 63 belair but after pulling this car out of the back yard I got to thinking what if I kept driving the belair for a while and did the chevelle up G machine style so that is were the go for broke came in. Just posting this up so you guys can follow this build along and either watch me fail or build something cool it could go either way!

Sorry for the lack of direction on the first post just really strapped for time lately and interruptions constantly. Well more on the plan of the car is changing rapidly the original plan was to give it a awesome paint job LS motor and just detail the hell out of it. I should of learned along time ago that I just can't go half way I try and try but every time I get a vision in my head I can not stop until it is done the way I would like to see it.so for now it is time to strip it to bare bones remove everything off the car that will not be used and GO FOR BROKE! my ultimate goal with the car is build a Foose,Trepanier,ring bros. quality build built in my home garage with just a handful of friends and low buck tools doing 95% of the work in one place including a garage paint job in all. My son and co worker Bobby willard are going to do a youtube video documentation of the whole thing so please follow us along to watch us either live the dream or fall on my face hard!
