1 bad55 stan Posted December 19, 2014 Author Share Posted December 19, 2014 (edited) Having grown up around these, in stock form and wild form, I will be watching this build very closely. With all that bar work and tubbed rear end, I would look brilliant with a 14/71 hanging out of that hood. Great start on it too. Thanks Dale,i love these old Holdens,i like your thinkin mate.We got to stick together on this one.NZ v AUS.!!!v USA!haha...

crowe-t Posted December 20, 2014 Share Posted December 20, 2014 Beautiful work Stan! How about a duel carb setup sticking slightly out of the hood. Not to obvious like a blower but still says Pro Street. Mike. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to obvious like a blower but still says Pro Street. Mike. Good idea Mike,i was going to try a twin turbo set up but i dont think there is enough room,so i think a blower or tunnel-ram might be the way i will go.

10thumbs Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 Some intense work going on here. Those are some serious pulleys on the turbo engine. Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 bad55 stan Posted March 26, 2015 Author Share Posted March 26, 2015 Thanks for your comments guys..I decided on using a blower for this,i have some Turbos but i'll use them on a latter build.Any way i have the frame and cage painted in a gunmetal,im going with weld wheels and maybe red walls on the front.

funhouse1 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 This looks very nice, really dig that body style...I build the old 50's-60's-70's junk so I am totally in awe you guys that build the modern stuff...MUCH more difficult, or so it appears to me.

W-409 Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 It's great to see that you're back on the bench again, Stan! This is an interesting project and it's always nice to see something different being built. I've watched these resin kits on Parts Box's webpage, but never ordered them. Maybe some day I will. Keep this coming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
