It looks like you leveled out the rain gutter. That has always been an idea of mine on those cars. I'm sure it will be bad ass like your vette when it is done.

I hope you are going to be able to get it low enough to the ground to make the low roof line look proportioned.. Muscle cars always look weird chopped to me because the body is proportioned to the roof pretty well from the factory.. im looking forward to seeing how this comes out!

Wow!!! That is funny how I missed this. I spend a lot of time on this site looking at builds and to see someone talk about mine is really funny. I'm glad what we have printed so far has given others ideas. Super Chevy will be running the rest of my build Project Getaway in roughly 8-10 more issues in the coming months. We have been stacking the stories so it will be in every issue until complete.

I also started a post on here about it. I will be showing a lot of little things that the we couldn't show in the Magazine issues due to space. Check it out.

Good luck with your build and I can't wait to see how it turns out.
