WOW....seems like such a short time ago you were showing us new paint and engine pictures! That came out just amazing. I know you took some flack with some of the boards, but its your car, and to me its awesome.

How was the reaction to the car at the show? You bag some awards with it??

Good to hear you made it...you earned it with that time table!

Thanks for the update
Tim

thanks alot man, that means alot. i don't think ive slept 8 hours the past 6 days. total build time was around 3 months. the show started today and ends sunday the 20th so i will be albe to tell you what i won then. i don't think i'll do to well on a point system becouse its not totally done and thier rules are kinda stupid like that. but it is totally making a big impression. there was more people around it today then were around cooter from dukes of hazard :willy:

Be proud, looks great. Doesn't really matter what others think anyway, I've had people dump on my projects too. You have to do what you like.

Jody

Turned out awesome!! Especially for the very short time you built the car in. What's your next project?

Mike

going to either tear into my 68 bird, full IRS, 4th gen interior including dash, single turbo LS1, 6 speed, or re-doing my 71 442 w-30 :thumbsup:

Nice, man! It's come a long way in three months.

Good luck with the show. :thumbsup:

that looks great!
have u got ur own website to check out?
are they 20" rears? wow that stance looks awsome.. love how you did the dash also! cheers... :thumbsup:

Looks great. :thumbsup: 3 months is incredible, you really busted your ass.

I feel a POSTER coming on!!!
 

Wow!!!! What a car. Just as the flames indicate - its HOT! :hail:

Here is an idea.....Lets sweet talk Kris Horton in to doing a poster (pro bono) to raise money for the site.

I know I'll be in for one! :thumbsup:

those are acctually 19s and 22s. id be in for a poster, let me know what the outcome is. also a website is in the works. :willy:

Looks great,I love that stereo :thumbsup:

truely amazing! Nice to see A bodies that nice. Couple of questions for ya if ya don't mind.... what is that colour green called, and what brand of rims are they, and i see you went with air ride....did you have to cut the frame in front to fit the bags? Sorry for all the questions lol. Oh and btw i am a lil bias but do the 71 olds ya got next!!! Thnx

great job
 

be proud
now thats a a bust ass job ....

LOOKS GREAT .GOOD LUCK AT THE SHOW

RADRAMBLER

polo green metalic, intro matrix rims, yes i had to notch the frame to fit the shockwave back when its deflated. any more?

Here is another idea: Kris needs to do some posters to raise money for rent. :D Buy the posters of Stuart's car to support this site though. It's definitely a good cause. :cool:

But by all means, sweet talk away! :thumbsup:

Beautiful Chevelle by the way, congrats on getting it done and looking so sharp!

Kris

Yea, yea, I know. None of us work for free. But you never know until you ask. Awesome work. :)

very nice
 

I like the finished product. I can't believe how fast you got that car together.

So tell us...how did you do at the show? :)

i placed last in my class. my car wasn't totally finished and i guess they didn't like that. oh well, i just wanted to make it there becosue everyone said i couldn't do it. i also got best rising star award.

Last??What class was that :question:

mmmmmmmmmm....car porn

Yeah...whats up with last! From the pictures the only thing I could pick out not complete was some of the interior, looked like under the dash, pedals, and maybe carpet were not completed. Sorry if they are and I am just being dumb!

Well, next year come back with it finished to their liking, and get yourself a trophy.

Tim

no your right. some wires were hanging there (tucked up for the show) missing a dash vent, carpet was just thrown in there and the concole wasn't totally screwed in there. i was in mild hardtop class. i was against a few nice cars. i figured id get totally last place, one of the cars had a polished block even. but just getting it there was enough for me. :willy:

Well, we certainly have you down for 1st class and with what you accomplished in the short time line - a star for sure.... :thumbsup:

You are our motivation, or mine at least. Well done!

thanks everyone! i guess thier isn't much anything else to do in Nebraska in the winter. :willy:

Last in class... the Midwest is so backwards. LOL I think it's a hell of a car.
