Can't wait to follow the new build!

Funny you should say that. So was the customer. He really wants to do a 69 with the LT1 engine. Chevrolet is being very tight with those engines and when they might be available.

The car looks amazing. Normally I'm not a fan of red interior but you guys nailed this one. GJ!

Thanks. The interior turned out great. The car was an original black on red interior car. That is why it was the customers favorite in his collection.

Looks good, I'm just getting into the LS Engines and now you are all talking about moving to the new platform LT1. This is never ending.

They say a picture is worth a 1000 words.



Nothing hangs below the chassis, the car is slammed and is fully drivable at this height. Man I miss this car already.


I love it when a plan comes together.

That settles it then. You should build one for yourself, and allow us to watch via the build thread. I never get tired of pictures of this car. It is exceptional.
Maybe only one tweak I'd do is a roll bar, or even a semi hidden cage.
Thanks for the pic!
And I thought a picture is worth a thousand words?
