HPI Customs: Customer Cars and Random Projects
 

Thought I would put a couple pics up of some of the smaller projects that don't need a build thread, and some stuff that doesn't fit the "pro touring" theme 100%!

I will start with a super cool 1961 Buick Electra that we have been working on.

Quick stats: This car makes a camaro look like a Mini!
401 Nailhead
EZ EFI, hidden under stock air cleaner
MSD Ignition system
700R4 Conversion
Double adjustable shockwaves up front
Custom rear trailing arms and panhard
Rear air ride and ridetech shocks
Accuair air management
Upgraded sway bars
Custom built wilwood brake kit (no one has ANYthing for this platform..... if you ever want custom brakes on one of these, call me!!)
Schott Crossfire wheels
Nitto tires
HPI stainless exhaust system

The car runs like a champ now, for anyone wondering about EZ EFI for a cruiser or mild street machine, I give it a huge thumbs up

The car isn't aired right out in this pic, didn't want to set it in the gravel!

401 nailhead! nice! car looks great...good work!

great looking car! :thumbsup:

That is a really cool car!

Good idea starting a general thread. I would like to see everything you are working on.

i need to see more of that car!!!

Early 60 GM=drool. Love it!:thumbsup:

We are getting a few things worked out on the buick, then we are doing a photoshoot for the customer. So I will have some cool shots.....

The thing drives like a dream. Again, the FAST system that is running it is night and day over a carb. You couldn't bump the engine over if you wanted it to, it starts everytime!! For a huge heavy car, it handles really great too. I threw it into an yeild yesterday at 50 mph, it responded very well!!! If only we could get a quick ratio box for it and get rid of the two foot diameter steering wheel!

Secretly I think its my favorite car we are working on right now...... but don't tell anyone!

I will try and get a few other things we are doing on here today.

Thanks for the comments
