Very nice, as there aren't many of these big cars on the road period, yet alone done all up in top notch quality and ready to roll. :wow: :wow:

Damn good work you do RS :hail: , hope have some nice idea to change Corvette logo on LS9 engine to Biscayne or Roadster Shop logo.

I know! We were looking around at other 60's and there are really not many that are much more than bagged with bigger rims. I think they are really good looking cars that with some tightening up and some enhancements of the details, could make for a seriously cool ride.

Of course!...the 'vette badge will go ;)

A few more pics of some recent work and ideas for where it is heading!

The underhood work continues with the addition of the cowl to duct air out from the coolers to a vent in the inner fender.

Cleaning up the appearance of the core support area:

Next, fab work begins on two tanks located on the other fender for the heat exchanger coolant and radiator/exchanger overflow:

The overall plan for the build is really an enhancement and tightening up of the original GM lines.
With the car coming from an era that many feel is really the heyday of GM styling, we thought it right to really let the lines speak for themselves.

We are still experimenting with a few colors, but them main vibe would be heading toward a more elegant color scheme, graphite gray or similar to the VW 'United Gray' with perhaps brushed nickel trim.

Some of the 'tweaks' would include moving the door handle mechanism to become part of the trim running down the side of the vehicle and tightening up the bumpers to the body, removing the seams on both and potentially re-working the side quarter emblem in a new style and flush with the body.

We always felt the two taillights on the Biscayne (unlike the three on the Impala) looked a little like an afterthought - the spacing always just looked 'wrong'. One concept would be re-positioning them and adding some more detail to the tailpanel. We also wanted to try a more bold concept with a wider single taillight lens on each side occupying the space on the tail panel, filling out the large blank space and leaning more towards the 'jet age' styling of the rest of the car.
