Bills72sj Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 This build was originally part of my Chevelle batch build in 2019. Due to all the test fitting and fabrication required this one was quite the challenge. However, I had a vision, and have now finally seen it through. The quality is not up to par because I had to handle it so much but it is "good enough". I am not sure I will ever take it to a show but at least I have one holy grail under my belt. Comments welcome. P.S. Does anyone have a spare set of AMT black 70 Chevelle hood stripes to help me give it the final touch? 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
espo Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Beautiful looking paint finish and trim details. Great looking chassis and engine. While I like the clean look if you think the black Z stripes from a Camaro kit would work let me know. The hood pattern is notched for a cowl induction hood so that's a bonus. I also have a pair of white skunk stripes but not sure what kit they're from. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some Camaro decals as well but they do not have the correct shape as the Chevelles have the pinstripe wrap around the front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
