Mattsteel85 Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 (edited) well this will b my first vette to add to my collection! Plan to go completely stock and paint it silver with Red interior. Here's a few shots of the motor! Used some scrap styrene and made up some additional parts for the fuel injection setup since it looked pretty! Added the throttle body, some oil/fuel lines and some other small accessories Edited March 28, 2016 by Mattsteel85
GTJUNIOR Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 That engine looks great. Can't wait to see more.
Force Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 Before you get too far, the top of the plenum should be turned around, the slope should be towards the front of the engine
espo Posted March 28, 2016 Posted March 28, 2016 Your added details really make this engine standout. I'm with Hakan, I think the top of the plenum is 180 out. Look forward to seeing the rest of your build.
Mattsteel85 Posted March 28, 2016 Author Posted March 28, 2016 i had it the other way and actually spun it because every picture i find the flags face the front of the car! def gonna spin it back around now that u guys pointed it out

Lizard Racing Posted March 30, 2016 Posted March 30, 2016 I've built a ton of '63s since '63, but they didn't look as good as this one.

Curt Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 This Vette is really looking good. A very clean build and you picked a classic color combination. Can't wait to see this one finished.
Mattsteel85 Posted March 31, 2016 Author Posted March 31, 2016 Got a chance to bust out the airbrush and clear the vette earlier tonight! Pic updates

Mattsteel85 Posted March 31, 2016 Author Posted March 31, 2016 Nice details in the dashthanks man! I used some BMF in a few spots but it was tough working on the tub. The seats in this kit are molded into the interior

GTJUNIOR Posted March 31, 2016 Posted March 31, 2016 One of my favourite cars of all time. Personally not crazy about the silver colour on the body but can't fault the quality of the paint job. Very nice work being done here. Can't wait to see more.
