Congratulations. You nailed it man. Everything is so well executed.

Things like this don't just happen......you obviously planned this build out.

You took a great car to start with (a '66) and made it much, much better.

Love it!

Thanks for the compliment. It is coming together really well and I can't wait to have it on the road.

What did you end up using for engine mounts, headers, and oil pan?

Engine and trans mount are from Energy. The headers are Edelbrock but needed t be modified to clear the starter. I think they are discontinued for that reason. The oil pan is the new Holley retro fit deal.

Very nice build. I really like how you kept some stock bits but expanded on it. Nice job! Can't wait to see it with the new wheels.

Video of First Drive
 
New Year's Eve was a good day. The guys from Ridetech delivered the rest of the suspension and I was able to take it around the block a few times for the first time.

Pretty stoked - here is the vid:

I was holding my phone while steering the car. The other hand was shifting - it was very impromptu.

OFF DA HOOK Enzo!!!!!! She sounds mean man!!!! I have a 67 Skylark that I am building at the moment pretty much what you have done are my plans for my Lark!!! Thanks for the inspiration!!!

Awesome build! Love the way you kept it a Malibu among many other things that are fantastic about your car. It's pretty funny too that I'm building a 66 Malibu that I bought out of San Diego a few years ago, drive a black Duramax, pull a Featherlite trailer and have two young children! I too have always loved the 1st and 2nd gen Camaros and ended up with a second Chevelle. Think our kids will appreciate the added room in the back:D

Don't mean to hijack your thread but here is a link to my build...
