Default Project 7TSS Chevelle Update

Well I started a thread last year about my Chevelle project and was making pretty good progress with the car all painted and ready to reassemble.

Here are some pics of it just after paint


Then I had a change of heart and decided to paint it black which is what I wanted from the start. Lesson learned: Don't let others talk you out of what you really want.

I contacted Carter Hickman about rendering the car again and this is what I'm shooting for


Now I'm back to sanding her down to get ready for another round of paint.

Here are a few of the rolling chassis. Still have to run the brake and fuel lines as well as mount the rear shocks.





I didn't box the frame as this is an original LS-6 Chevelle w/ build sheet. Even though it's not a numbers matching engine I didn't want to do anything permanent. Later, if I can find another frame I'd like to box and strengthen it and swap it in.

Thanks for looking

Goodwin

Man I would give my left nut to have a 70 convertible. My favorite Chevelle EVER. Nice paint work.

The red came out pretty good but too bad it'll be coming off to make way for some black. LOL
