Thankfully he loved it... So the wrap stays on.

Here's a link showing how it was done.

it turned out great ,just have him fix the vinyl on side louvers before dirt gets in there

Cool guys and thanks for the info!

Yep I am piece mill putting together a LS from the bare block up, so powertrain is teh priority right now. I just picked up a vert 68 with a crappy paint job but decent enough body. This will be the lab rat:


She currently has a Chevy 307 that was swapped in Runs good and all, but it is a 307 and I do not want to keep it that way for long. Fun to drive, but I am spoiled with a juiced 400 on my other bird, so thsi has got to go

Mocking up a couple sets of wheels:

Foose Nitrous 18's is not a go, too busy:



Winna, 18/20's



In!


I ordered and just received yesterday the 3M 1080 Dinoc Vinyl which is supposedly one of the best out there for car wraps. Will post up pictures on the process and keep you posted on how teh install goes. I am far from a pro vinyl installer, but hopefully can make it work well enough.

Priorities right now:

1- engine
2- improve the car looks
3- safety
