Me too! I really like the changes they made to the car.

Thanks. The Chevelle has a ton of unique styling and components. It was quite a challenge to put a modern spin on something that, as the owner put it, has the style and body lines of a mattress! There was a lot of sentimental value with that particular car and he had a good vision on where he wanted the car to go. I think we exceeded our own expectations on this build.

Greening Auto Company machined the tail lights and tail panel for the car. The main panel and trim piece were machined from aluminum. The lenses were machined from acrylic then had custom LED boards and diffusers built in from the backside. Greening also did the 1-off wheels and a few other components on the build that we will highlight later on. We have machined a lot of components in house for this and the other cars we will unveil at SEMA. The greening crew is great to work with and are incredibly talented.

Am I missing something? I googled it and even looked in the Urban Dictionary...is this like "BadBoy" or "NoFear"?

Looking forward to seeing everything come together.
