Suggestion. Next time try "wrapping wire" for plug wires. Little more to scale. But keep those wires yougot. They might make great heater hoses.

Huh? My bad. Thats the carb that came with..thats the only way it fitted. Should have took note of that..but probably would have kept it like that anyway. It wont be seen with the aircleaner on.

The gear shifter is the one that was in the box with everything else. I just snipped away the plastic rod with steel wire. I did add some extra ribs to the rubber part. Just filed plastic rod to a oval shape and sliced it.

Badass

And so it begins....

Few weeks aeay.?

I agree freakshow. I really wanted plymouth rally wheels but the ones I wanted are 1:24 so I had to grind them to reduce the diameter and did not turn out that good. But they are temporary until I find proper 1:25 steel wheels without the slots. I remember having a set but threw them away not thinking I would have any use if them.

Good color

Good colors

Thats a good idea BelugaWX.. I knows some tricks but I don't know if they the fastest way to do things.

Originally painted the hubcaps metalizer "aluminum" what the heck was I thinking? Did one in chrome. Clearly it looks better

Awesome...just wondering mr.obsessive...before you finish the carb linkage..could you take some progress shots? I really need to know how you build these and what you use to connect them. And also what you use as screws on coil brackets and what not.

Thanks. Means alot. Bisc63..its not flocking..only gold embossing powder clearcoated with flat paint. And Fulltimehobyist..its a piece of steel wire. I think I drilled a hole in the old knob and glued the wire to it. I dont think straight pins will bend. They just snap when I try to bend them anyway.

Looks better without the chrome side trim. Only thing I would change is the red to tripple black!

Badass

Technically ..bare metal doesn't mean "silver-ish" . Because different metals can be different colors and sheens. That being said...it needs to be more silverish.?

Perfect interior color. What it is?

Slowly coming along

Shirley..performance parts were available back in the day. Rather recently at a swap meet I saw a weind aluminum intake for poly v8. I always thought they made respectable power right from the factory ...far more than the two-barrel , small valve 318 that replaced it anyway.

Awesome. This looks strangly badass as a hardtop

Badass. Not enough cadillacs here.

A. I hate station wagons and 2. I hate roofracks but this is just so different that anything on here and the color is lovely so I guess I have to say..badass.

Awesome.bronze is nice
