I think the rear rocker kick out would look bas add on a 68. With a nice stainless box tip.
I was thinking the SAME thing!!!....and 12inch rims hanging out there filling up the well.......I just have to buy two fenders for the front....I am going to play with a stretch there to fit 12inch wides up front, the way we did the back quarters...before I decide completely

Whats wrong with your old fenders? Just have them dipped and soda blasted.

Vince-

I'm thinking NACA ducts where the rear windows would be great for brake ducting - what do you think? Or could you actually make the 3 fake vents in the rear quarter real vents for ducting (similar to a c5 z06)?

Either way would work very well. Let me know.

Do you already have front brake cooling ducts?

Nope. Thinking about two options:

1) remove the driving lights for track days and have ducts behind them?
2) fab ducts outside the headlights - dunno if you'd get enough air into the corners?

Where else do people get clean air for first gen brake ducts?

Cheers,
Jason
