Default 66 fastback track rat called "Fat Back"

Ok i have now got some pics of the starting project and a name "Fat Back" due to the plans I have .. I like the old school GT trans Am cars with big fender flares and wide tires..This has been my dream car and i have been looking for one for 2 years, I finally found one locally and traded my 68 firebird and some cash and brought this baby..
