Honestly if I didn't jump in that rabbit hole I may have been done years ago! But it really has made a big difference in this build and I am beyond happy with how this is coming together.

Hey Tim,
Thanks for following along. It's been a long project and I've learned so much along the way.

Great work Jason, it's been a long hiatus but the latest results of your work are first class! 👍
Thank you Francis. This project is always in the background. I have learned a lot throughout this build thanks to this friendly community.

Hello all,
Apologies for such a long delay between updates
I've been back on this project non-stop the last month or so and have made great progress.
The chassis is finally done. I've finished the drivers cage, door bars, trans tunnel, seat frame mount, pedal box, pedals, steering column support and misc body supports. The body fits tightly with the chassis and tin work.
All the suspension has been removed an the chassis has been primed and painted with some carbon fiber decal added to the wheel tubs
The body has been disassembled. The front clip, doors and trunk are removable and held in place with magnets most of the jamb work is done and almost ready for primer
As always thanks for following along
Jason

Your progress is coming along nicely. The time you have spent on the 3D files shows and will make a beautiful replica.
I sure hope you could make these available. I've got my body done i just don't have the skills to do what you've made in 3D.
Looking forward to future updates

Thank you very much. Would you have a link to the engine on Cults3D?
There are no 3D files for the gearbox either. I haven't even found any pictures of it.
Here is s link to the engine
https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/various/ford-v6-ecoboost-3-5l-engine-motabas
I'm almost certain he used the same sequential gearbox and tranfercase as the hoonicorn. I had some picures of the bare chassis and some without the body. That may help also. If I can find them ill send them your way.

Great work on this so far. Yor cad work on the frame has turned out well.
Not sure if you know but there is a twin turbo ecoboost on cultis3d now. It would be a great start to your project and could be a convincing piece for your build after making the intake and re-locating the turbos.
Looking forward to more updates
Jason

That’s a great looking truck! The stance, wheels and paint color together give it a mean street rod look. If you don’t mind me asking, what is the blue paint?
Thank you!
The blue is a ford color from a early 2000's Lincoln called medium royal blue.
Code is: LA/M6504A

Revell foose FD100. Engine, transmission, wheels and tires are 3D printed. All kit chrome was stripped and airbrushed with molitow liquid chrome along with the resin engine parts, exhaust and wheel barrels.
2k clear
A light sand and polish

Here are the final pictures
I was happy to make it to the GSL for their final show. And took a handful of cars to show.
Finally got to meet some members here and see their work in person.

old topic but ......
Have you considered using the restored kit from C1-Models?
1/24 Restomod ‘76 Firebird C1-TK032
This is made for the 1/24 Revell 78 trans am. It will give you the correct hood, front and rear bumper and tail lights to convert to a 76. With little work to remove the aero parts, you have everything you need. This is the route I took.
Hope this helps!

small update...

thank you. brings some life and detail to the chassis
On 1/31/2023 at 4:23 AM, Zippi said:That's a purdy looking 67 Chevelle. That 572 BB looks good setting in the business end. Great job.
On 1/30/2023 at 10:55 AM, TransAmMike said:I'm assuming its a 1/24 scale engine??
with a digital file you can scale them to any size. its actually 1/25 but you can see how large it is. making headders took a while
thank you all for you wonderful comments !

Hi Jason, beautiful Chevelle indeed. One of my all time favourite body styles. (I’m biased being the owner of a ‘67 Beaumont)
May I ask where you sourced the tires and wheels? Hard to tell in the photos, but tires look like BF Goodrich TA’s ? The deep offset rallye wheels are beautifully done. I plan a replica of my car one day, and I am looking at sourcing some TA’s, and good, deep dish rallye wheels with those centre caps. Thanks in advance, and again, absolutely beautiful build.
Cheers, Steve
hello Steve
thank you!
you are correct tires are BFG/TA's. wheels and tires i 3d printed wheels are 3 peice making them a breeze to paint

HA! I saw someone else's version a minute ago! What paint colors did you use for this? That's what's been keeping me from building it. i think I have the original article somewhere but really doesn't touch on the paint. Awesome work!
if I remember correctly, the blue was duplicolor and the white is tamiya pearl white
thanks!
