  1. Thanks …. I just like to build stuff in a different way than other people. The hood is only thing not happy with I wanted stock hood but oh well I guess
  2. I mean the technology was there in 1975 so figure why not . Thanks for your input too I went ahead and continued the build while waiting for an answer if it DQs the model I’ll take the hit and build something else .
  3. Started this yesterday but today was a rain day so spent some time on her today. Opened the driver door and trunk swapped a 426 hemi/4speed combo. Smoothed firewall swap 9 inch swap type 2 nascar brakes and built a extended fuel tank setup so think got a good bit done hope y’all like her color combo TBD ( goin between black red interior or the normal red/white combo that’s popular with these cars but teal/white has been a thought ) opinions ?
  4. ? 70s type 2 nascar disc brakes are they allowed ?

  13. And yes I’m building this as a street stock car like nascarlo that’s why it still has “headlights” and such. Wish ide shortened the wheelbase up by 3 scale inches but was not worth it . The exhaust I’m still pondering … will it be normal stock car or something lil diff? Also wish ide done a dry sump bbc so might be doing a few changes
