This looks to be the top-of-the-line Limited trim. I recall a classmate whose parents bought a new '58 Buick with this same trim level. Theirs was a red convertible with red leather interior and a continental kit.

Always wonder the how and why of a lot full of old trucks like this. Shame they are left to rot outside. Maybe some minor engine or drive train issue caused them to be parked since the bodies look intact.

OW OW OW !

Beautiful cross section of vehicles.

Great looking car show. Something for everybody.

Like how you raised the front suspension ride height.

Sounds like the schools' administrative staff need to go back to school themselves.

Great body design and creativity. Can remember the sound of the Good Humor Ice Cream trucks of the summer driving thru the neighborhood as a child.

Beautiful paint color and finish. The body color and the interior color look great together. Didn't notice the fender gap issue until you mentioned it. Like the engine detailing.

Beautiful looking paint color and finish. The custom body work blends smoothly with the rest of the body. Like your changes to the instrument panel since that was an area that Chevrolet sort of stepped in it with their original design.

Beautiful looking paint finish and chrome foil trim. I'm also a big fan of this kit and the subject. The engine has a great OEM look along with the chassis detailing.

Like the smooth body work. Think about a color that will best show the body lines, something with little or no metallic to distract the eye.

Great Kustom body work. The heavy metal flake looks at home on this.

Beautiful paint finishes and color. Like the engine detailing.

Great looking body conversion and paint work. Nice air ride detailing in the back.

Beautiful paint finish and vinyl roof. The body proportions look perfect. Like the color choices and the interior.

Beautiful paint and decal finishes.

The notchback body style makes this an even rarer car than the usual fastback body styles.

Beautiful looking finishes and color. The chrome trim is neatly done. Great looking interior picture, I'll have to try that. The engine and chassis detailing are very realistic looking. I agree with you on the assembly and fit of this kit and look forward to building another one as well.

In the US these were marketed as Pontiac GTO's. Bought a new '05, it reminded me of when my hair was long and my stomach was flat, unlike now.

Like the fine Metalflake paint color and finish. Great engine detailing.

Great looking paint color and finish. Like the OEM style appearance and not all Z-28's had the stripes anyway.

The drip moldings enhance the look of the roof.

The biggest challenge would be keeping it going straight and having a fresh change of BVD's waiting at the finish line.

Bunky Knudsen at GM sent Mickey Thompson 4- 389 cu in engines for his 1960 attempt at the record. These were modified by Mickey and his mechanics to a reported 414 cu in each. After bad track conditions where high speeds even proved fatal for one driver they didn't try again until Sept. of 1960 when they went 406.6 mph on a one-way run. On the return run needed to set the official record they had mechanical problems that caused one of the engines to over rev and damaged it to the point that they couldn't back up the speed for the record.
