Larry, that is just too cool! A period perfect build of one of my favorite kits! Nice job cutting out the rear wheel arch in that sweeping curve; just perfect. Where did you get the rear wheels and tires? What's under the hood?

Here is a pic of the engine before it was wired and detailed. It is the kit smallblock, with tunnel ram from the '66 Nova, scratch built headers. Paint is GM Flame red. The rear tires were from my parts box, and are 2 piece. I don't know what the came with, but I am guessing they are Revell, possibly from the 70s era dragsters and funnys. The wheels were also from the parts box, and I have no idea what they were from. I stripped them and painted them with metalizer paints. I think they were 60s era AMT or MPC, but not sure what kit or kits they are from. -Larman

The rear tires look like the ones from the revell -anglia/austin/willy's/henry j kits
