Hey JC...well..I'm still working on my cousins 72 short tack Chevelle. Had to take a break on it as there were Life things that needed attended to. Now...I just went into the shop yesterday and started back on it and had to figure out where I was on the thinking part of the build. You know that took some time!! LOL. Once I get all the small things taken care of I'll post a WIP on it. Thanks for asking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afx Posted December 18, 2020 Author Share Posted December 18, 2020 Got the top half of the engine fitted. Using and engine from a built-up. I pick them up when I can find them cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started with nothing more than a resin body. I'm using Fujimi Porsche 911 parts to complete the project along with some scratch building. I'm using a Fujimi curbside chassis that only includes engine detail for the lower half. The top half comes from another Fujimi Porsche 911 built-up I purchased awhile back.
