Default My late update on my 65 Riviera

Bought a nice orig paint 65 Riviera, sent it to Sled Alley, Roadster Shop chassis, Brian Thompson 427 like in Hellfire. 4L80E. Matt and my idiot friend Stielow are figuring out how to make it all work while keeping it orig paint and interior.

Absolutely love the early Rivs! What classic lines.
This will be such an awesome touring car. Hmmm....Hellfire & this animal in the garage? Or is this for GW to use on the tours?
Wonder if NOSLORIV will fit on a Cali plate? I guess not.

No need for a rendering as it's gonna look about like it did at the beginning.

As my boys would say “that’s dope”. Not only is everything tucked up into the frame (I’m assuming) but the floor has been dropped which makes things nice and roomy for a normal sized, 6’+ person to be comfortable.

As the interior goes back together are you sticking with a stock styled layout and patterns with upgraded materials?.....hint, the answer should be yes.

Looking good CL!

Someone needs to invent see-through carpet and sound deadener. It would be nearly as good as silent Velcro.

Stock interior was nice and will go back in. Should be able to trim the console and make it go back in also. Matt says the gas tank should hold just over 25 gallons.
