There is a good opening right ahead of where the pic is cropped.
(2nd gen doors are about 10 feet long remember...)

The pringles are cool, were they done on a multi axis machine? How were they fixtured?

Chris, This Chevelle has got to be one of my favorite back ends of a car I've seen on here, and that is saying something with all the beautiful builds and talent on Lat-g. I always loved 64 Chevelles. Once its revealed please post more pictures.

Thanks Wayne!
As Phil touched on earlier, the '64 convertible body wasn't something we had considered 'sexy' until we started getting into it.

Much of the cars original 'features' were really concentrated in the tailpanel and front fascia. When you analyze it a little, it is actually a fairly modern styling principal to have much of the vehicles character in the headlight/grille area and rear with clean body lines through the mid section with little fuss added. (Think Audi, Porsche etc) This offered up a really nice platform to add some nice contemporary cues and really tighten up the styling of the car. We will absolutely do a full build thread update after the big reveal!

Today's tubular tease:

Perfectly flat for me to put my floor jack.

Isn't this style of exhaust built around a certain rpm? A local guy has this set up on his front engine dragster and explains it as a sort of power band like on a 2 stroke.

Looks great, all of it!

They are indeed true 180 degree headers.
It looks badass, it sounds amazing...we need more reasons?

Also works well for keeping oil warm on those cold blistery days...
