I would really, really like to see this car. But I can't seem to get the link to work. Help?
I dont know about the link, but I have some pics from a local show from about 10 years ago I also have the Super Chevy mag. issue that it is featured in. I will scan it and email it to you.

Great! Thanks a lot. I've been looking into the Daytona kit, but pics (even from the distributor) are hard to find. Like to know what it's going to look like after it's been put on a car. Catalogs pic of parts isn't enought to convice me into spend $6,XXX.

Shaggy I hope this help.

PS The car has changed since the Super Chevy layout mainly in the engine compartment. He added things like a polished blower, etc.

After looking at the pics, the rear wheels are too narrow, they sit inside the fender by a good 2". That looks to be one of his design flaws.
