Default My Next Project

I know that this is not your typical G-Machine ( Corn Binder ). It is just to cool to let go not to mention I'm going to build it with my 15 yr old son I think it's a 64







What do you guy think? I'm not going to build a chassis for it. I will clip it with a 78 G-body front end. 5" ride height

Awesome choice. Looks kinda like Tow-Mater from Cars. Need to fab up an old school tow rig on the back. I've got a junk 79 Camaro if you decide to use a 2nd gen F body clip. What kind of wheels are you gonna run?

I can imagine some skinny's and a set of big MT's on the back along with the towing rig. Dragster tow truck? Whatever you decide, I'm sure it will be bad a$$. Good luck Lou.

I'm looking at Boze Forged I like the Pro-touring 19X8.5 in the front with 20X10 in the back

Lou, I was looking at the front of that truck and thinking how cool it would look if you could set back the entire grille and headlights by 2 or 3 inches...so that the fenders and hood would "overhang" a bit. Kinda hard to e'splain.
