JTalmage Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Youre making me want to pull mine out of the box and start on it... Going polar opposite of your idea though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Hamilton Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 (edited) Thanks.. The fronts I cut the centers out and use the Pegasus 19 sleeve.... On the rears they just slid into the 23 sleeves they have... Small up date...Got the body painted and cleared..... Didnt notice it till clear but on the pass door is a small indention.... I didnt get my stripe right either...Fortunantly I have a spare kit so Im getting it prepped and ready to spray and strip this body and use for a nother build..Had a blister pop up on my hood too so its been stripped and getting prepped and fixed. Got the interior flocked and rolling And got the motor going...I used the extra intake from the 67 Vette....Something old school and diff That is looking really nice. Funny thing, I noticed the same blemish in the door of mine. I am still gathering the parts to build mine, which will be a Replica Stock.

slusher Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Love the color and engine. Do you have to have a scoop with the vett intake... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
66belair Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Looks great.how close is it to the 69 version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slammedi'am Posted September 18, 2014 Author Share Posted September 18, 2014 Thanks everyone... Slusher,it fits perfect under the hood and even with the stock hood... Got body number 2 in first coat of primer,some engine details going and interior going too...Will have some pics in a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slammedi'am Posted September 18, 2014 Author Share Posted September 18, 2014 cool. nice job. those aluminum sleeves must be expensive, but they are worth it. I do the same only with deep offset plastic rims. if I can learn to cut straight, they would look much better. thanks for posting that up. They are not that bad on price...About $10 a set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slammedi'am Posted October 5, 2014 Author Share Posted October 5, 2014 Well I finally got back on this hot and heavy...Took a week of vacation and got my real truck cleaned up and went to a truck show... Got back and was still bummed about the spot on the door (of the model) and some other stuff that happened...I worked a lil here and there but now Im back at full force on it.. Pretty much got the interior done....Still need some details Got my headers made and everythin painted...Its almost done and soon to go in Ran out of paint for the new body so went to get some more and found a diff color I liked better...This is before clear Got the suspension pretty much done and decided to go with these wheels instead.... Ive got the decals on and will get clear tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pharr7226 Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 That intake was a great choice and the aluminum pulleys give it a modern feel. The subtle modifications like the hood and the wheels really set this build off. Great work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
