Since its about 58 minutes long, watching this in ‘chunks’.
Deep dive into the why a FPC…and the how. If you like tech, A+ vid. There is track thrashing, but hearing at length directly from those who made this happen makes this vid unique imho.

I wish Greg had built his bubble top. I bet it would have turned out great. This green one is gorgeous. That W motor is so cool and unique.
The Galaxie is amazing as well. I would have put the back end a little lower so that it sits level. Otherwise, I'd change nothing.

At the 3:40 min mark, they pan around a stock 61 bubbletop and the Dirty Martini car.
Eye opening…

Trey,
Agreed.
But you may remember Greg saying the car was just too big for him.
Both the 61-62 Impalas are 209”.
This one surprised me, the 65 GTO’s are almost as long…206”.
They didn’t shrink down some until 68-69.
