Thank you very much! As for insurance, somehow I believe, he was grandfathered in, due to being with Erie for ages. He didn’t seem to have an issue, he had a new 67 GTX convertible the year before. Thank you very much. It certainly was potent! After he modded it with Isky, Hooker, L88 parts, he had it in the 11s. Thank you! Thank you , Carl. Thank you , Mike

'Grandpa Special' 1/25 1974 Challenger

Great demonstration of the conversion parts. Now I know what I will be up against. If you are looking to make the engine more correct, the valve covers have to be reshaped some. They are too squared off compared to the early 70’s small block valve covers. Otherwise, I love the VCG kit. Keep the good stuff coming!- 14 replies

Added photo etch marker lights from Model Car Garage 68-72 Nova kit to properly complete conversion to a 1968 car. Now under glass.

This is a replica of the car my father special ordered in 68, done as the very next day after delivery. He immediately installed traction bars and Torq Thrusts, that was it until warranty ran out, then he modded it for street racing. The car was 375hp L89 ( aluminum head) 396, Muncie M22 4 speed, 4:10 posi, ivory/ black deluxe interior, manual steering, power disc brakes. This was built from the 67 Revell Nickey kit, the Revell 67 Camaro SS kit, the Monogram 69 Camaro Pace car for interior panels, along with scratch building. The typical Revell Camaro slanted tail lights problem was corrected, the vent windows were eliminated and belt trim scratch built with styrene. I scratch built A.I.R. Tubes, used 70 Corvette LT1 belt setup to properly portray 68 L89 configuration. The paint is MCW 1968 Chevy Matador Red with White Sport Stripes from Keith Marks.

Made new driveshaft from styrene tube and cutoff yokes from Duster kit. I finished trunk details and married the body to chassis

Thank you Carl

Cool find! It reminds me of the Cox Dragster I had as a kid.

Since I busted up anything that could possibly break off while trying to get resin headers to fit chassis, I reshaped the valve covers, added the nitrous, repainted engine. I am custom forming headers from solder and heat shrink now. Edit, headers made, engine mounted in chassis.
