AMT 72 Chevelle

I'm loosely basing this build off of an old photo from my fathers high-school years. No, there will be no fender flairs.

I used taller rear coil springs, from AMT's 70 Monte Carlo lowrider, to get the back end nice and high.

Stock ride hight.

Raised rear.

I widened the rear tires by cutting 4 AMT hollow Good-Year Polyglas gt tires one tread from the center and stretched them over a smaller tire. They are now 10 scale inches wide. The rims are Spiders. The rears are from AMT 79 Firebird, the fronts are from my parts box.

I will keep the stock cowl induction, but add headers and glass packs. The 454 doesn't need much help anyway. The inner fenders have been remove in true hot rod fashion.

The colour will be Testors Sapphire Blue Metal Flake.
