What are your intentions for final finish or is that still evolving?

It looks so cool in that last picture with the van, tires all fat filling the wheelwells and the car being slightly short, squat and low... maybe a bit of lens distortion? It is almost a caricature or cartoon effect, but I really like it. Completely raw. Thank you for sharing your work.

Yes, it's a little lens distortion. I was thinking a two tone - black on top and brown on the sides. "Inverted Yunick" =)

Thanks!

Had to abandon the weber setup. Got hold of All Pro cylinder heads (cnc) with titanium valves. Raised intake runners didnŽt match my weber intake. Sold that setup and almost got all the remaining parts the motor was missing. The webers are cool, but this way the project took a big step forward (and gained approx 200hp). Nice air filter?!





Jerico 4 spd that will be operated clutchless.
