Wow, look what a sick set of wheels does to a car! Bitchin. :thumbsup:

On the home stretch now Scotty! :woot:

This is an awesome built. Really like the wheels and the stance. What backspacing did you end up with for the front and rear. I plan on putting 18x8 front and 18x11.5 for the rear. I really like how the fronts are tucked in. My car has speedtech subframe,complete kit.

Thanks for the kind words boys. 72 Z/28 I ordered the wheels from Jon at DriverzInc. He knows his spacing! I will check with him and get the backspacing for you. :lateral:

what is this color blue from? its beautiful

The Blue 68
 

Scotty,
The blue 68 is my car. Sorry if this is too late, I dont get on the fourms much. The wheels are 19X9 with 6.2" back space on the front (on a DSE sub frame) and 19x11 on the rear with 5.7" back Space. The rears could be a inch wider = 6.7" back space and fit with the DSE tubs.

Rob

DSE Roll Bar installed!! Seats arrived!! Mock intsall. On the home stretch baby1:thumbsup:

Car looks sweet Scotty. That fixed back seat felt good when I sat in it yesterday. :thumbsup:

Getting closer buddy...

Nice built!!! your getting there Scotty.... GJ!!!! :thumbsup:

That car is looking great! Love the wheel/car color combo.:thumbsup:

Wow, that is one fine '68. :thumbsup:

More progress. Got the radiatior installed (thx ron davis, very nice piece), mufflers, and xpipe are here. Firewall cleaned up. Really just engine, and tranny install is all that is left. Cant wait!!!!:unibrow:

Very nice! like the last pic from above! :thumbsup:

Thanks for the kind words boyz. Up stairs is where the beer was so hence the above photo! Beer inspiration :thumbsup:

Won't be long now Scotty....:thumbsup: Keep Rich away from the beer! :lol:

Thx. The beer for Richie is like liquid Van Gogh. If I take it away he might chop off his ear! :D Im ready to beat on this beast. Not much longer!

No updates, but hit up the Santa Cruz, Ca boardwalk today for Hot Rods at the Beach. Nice turn-out. No pro-touring cars though. Need to get mine done so I can represent! Here are a few pics.

i want your stock wheels

If your local (california) then we could figure something out. Not willing to ship, sorry.

Well. Let me know if you change your mind.

Engine and tranny dropped! Brake lines all done, and wiring is all dialed in. Drive shaft finished tomorrow, and we should hear her this weekend! On the home stretch. :unibrow:

Yeah baby! :woot:

You better get some video on startup! :thumbsup:

Can wait to see you driving this thing... I'll see ya in a couple weeks.:cheers:

Looking good Scotty! :thumbsup:

Very, Very Cool!!

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

so what were the exact rim and tire sizes that you went with?

What is the board members name on PT that owns this? I seen it out at goodguys and remember them saying it was from Roseville. wanted to ask him a few questions.

Not sure of his username but his name is Rob Chandler. I met him and his wife at the Goodguys show recently. It's a beautiful car.

Should have motor start up video in the next couple days! Cant wait :willy:

:thumbsup:

Yeah buddy! I know you must be chompin at the bit! :cheers:

Im just trying to decide the perfect rim/tire setup for my 67. I was wondering if i can still tuck the tires running 18x9 and 18x12 with a 255/40/18 and 335/30/18

Love it! Great job. Good to see kick ass build without a LS motor........:cheers: :woot: .

The maiden voyage! This is the first time we have heard her. Richie B, 421ci, and bud light. A good night. :thumbsup:

Congrats Scotty! Now post some video....:yes:

Hope this works. Heres a link of a quick first start up. Notice Richie B and his beer holder. Classic. http://youtu.be/d9SH-Rlchfc

:woot: :woot: :woot:

Congrats!!!!!

Nice!!!
 

Sounds bad a** Scotty...:thumbsup: how's your ears after that little romp? :lol:

Motor sounds SICK!:cheers:

Congrats Scotty.. you'll be ripping the streets (and track) soon! :thumbsup:

Rich's super human ears can tolerate 200 db... Impressive. :D

Sounds healthy!!
 

That engine sounds like a it is gonna tear up the hills. I'd love to see it on the roads up here, tearing up the Santa Cruz Mountain roads. :unibrow:

What? I cant hear anything! lol It was a good night. Still a lot of little things to do. Hopefully an early Xmas present to me! :D
