I blew Mountian Dew everwhere.

 

 

That was good

Back to the topic of the thread....

It is hard to see because both pics are dark but I glassed in the firewall smotth. The car has no winshield wipers or anything so it was easy





As you can see from my Avatar no rear bumpers and no kit this was 5 straight weekends playing with fiberglass and body filler



and a little gauge cluster action



I have tons more but no pics of the other stuff, pretty much the whole freaking car

 

Love that *** end! So Smooooooth!

Flares are sweet too! The entire package flows!

 

Thanks the body kit and flares were a big factor in removing the bumpers. I thought it would flow real well. Next is a BM stripe in silver

 

Well it's stock!!!,,,er,,,um,,was stock,,at some point a long long time ago!!

 

I was wandering when you were going to show up….Come on now I know you have more to show

 

1977 with a 68 327 I did myself (car is now Sold)

 

I need some new pics!!!Sorry,I have been workin on it though!

 

WHY? Are you serious?

 

Looks like you startled it!
Pretty cool though.

 

Lets see Custom Paint job, rear window louver, fender louver, custom hood, exhaust pipes, new engine (ZZ4), Kiesler trans with over drive, keyless locks, air horn, and few other odds and ends:

 

Here's my custom paint, it's a standox effect paint called montecarlo magic.

It's hard to get the camera to catch all the colors. It goes from purple to blue, to green and there's also some dark copper tones under the right angle.

 

Hey V-Twin..... I love your wheels! that deep offset in the rear looks fricken sweet

Were these pics taken just after you painted the car or do you just like to cruise around open header.....

 

the rears have a 1" spacer, the wheels are not deep enough. I'm going to order some new ones, 2"wider, 1" less offset, it'll look a lot deeper. From the rear, these are silly narrow. They don't fill the flares properly.

Pics are taken right after firing up the engine, it's still running with open ehaders and short boat mufflers. My brother has to finish building the custom inserts for the sidepipes. There are also no mirrors on the car in this pic.

This is with the boat mufflers, still too loud

I don't really care for the green car, but this one's sweet

 

Well this is more custome work that you cant really see...it's funny you mentioned boat mufflers...I also have boat mufflers I actually have a set of the two disc racing incerts at the collector then I have a set of mufflers that I took out of my buddies drag boat headers. The car is still real loud but I like.

You car sounds good I think it would tone down a bit more if you put the pipes on....and is that a gear drive I hear.....I got one too

Here is a little clip of mine, the racing disc knocked the noise down a little but was still a bit loud then I threw thos boat muffs in because I had them laying around and it sounds great I think

just a few random pics of some of things i have done so far. it is far from done and there is a lot more to come.

 

I’ve been following your thread on the interior upgrade. You do very nice work!!! I don’t think I would have the nads to start a project that large. I like what you did to the front opening it up, that looks classy. I had thought about opening up the front on my ’69 but I just don’t like the chrome bumper cars that have been done like that.

 

I was thinking about trying the car chemestry inserts along with the boat mufflers, yours sounds awesome I'm only worried about passing inspection, they don't take too kindly to excessive noise. I can always pull the mufflers out if it's too quiet later on.

My boat mufflers are 4"OD and 3,5" ID, hardly any muffling at all:






Yes, you hear an erson gear drive
