Default Custom Builder in Oregon
Hi all. I work for Eckert's Rod and Custom. I've been on the Pro-Touring.com site a lot in the past couple of weeks, so I thought I'd come over here and say hello as well.

We build a lot of G-Machines out here. Probably because we like to build toys to drive, not just to show. Our most recently finished build is the '63 Impala pictured below. It premiered at SEMA, and sits on our recently debuted universal C5/C6 chassis, the Torque 3G. The powerplant is an LS7.

That is a really sweet car, I like how you kept the stock frame look and used a rear transaxle, the weight bias must be pretty good.

Yes that is a cool car! Had my pic taken in front of it with that hot Playmate!! I need to come down and check out the shop, I'm just up in Hillsboro. My Uncle lives near you at the SkyDive Oregon air strip...it's nice down there!
