Thanks Scott. The color is the original 1966 Madeira Maroon. Mike had a car this color back in the day and used that as the inspiration for this build. Come on by if you are ever in the area.

The blue 67 is back on track, but moving slowly. We have a lot of other things going on and that one has take a back seat. I'll get a few pics of that and some other projects we have going on and post them on our "Shop Projects" thread later today.

coolwelder62 12-01-2011 11:56 AM

Wow!! look's great in the light.

tones2SS 12-01-2011 05:14 PM

Those valve covers would look killer in the same color as the car with the "572 CHEVROLET" in gloss black.

BBC71Nova 12-02-2011 06:45 PM

Wow. Beautiful color choice. What color is that?

BBC71Nova 12-03-2011 07:39 AM

There are a few better shots in the other general RS projects thread just recently posted. Sorry no linky. I'm on phone.

coolwelder62 12-11-2011 07:02 AM

Any up-date's on this amazing build.:thumbsup:

Roadster Shop 12-12-2011 04:47 PM

No updates just yet. It is waiting its turn for final assembly and wiring. We have a few things to finish infront of this car but we should be back on it before the first of the year.

coolwelder62 12-12-2011 06:08 PM

Damn.I love that car.

fairlane?
 
Awesome Chevelle!

A couple pages back I can see a 62 or 63 Fairlane in the background, any build pics of it?

Roadster Shop 01-26-2012 10:07 AM

Thanks everyone. The car is on the final stretch and turning out really nice! The color really pops nicely in the sun. It is hard to capture in a picture, but when the sun shines through the shop window and hits the car in areas, it really comes to life.

It is a 63 Fairlane. it will be a pretty unique car. All stock trim, stock body, total grandma's car from the outside. underneath is one of our custom Fast Track chassis with our new IRS. It has a Jon Kaase Boss 9 motor with 8 stack injection and a T-56 trans. The car is due back from media blasting today and I will start a build thread shortly.

No it is not a stock 572. I had the engine built by Proformance unlimited. When I had them do it they used what I wanted and no make it for order as a custom engine. You can check it out at:

http://www.proformanceunlimited.com/specs/572_750.html

And here is the video they made for me.

You guys are SO talented. It just blows my mind! Also think its great that it didn't turn into a SUPER SPORT even though I love em. BTW what type of headlights are they? Are they sealed beams if not did it take any modification to the headlight buckets?
