Looks really nice. I sure hope you remove the "TM GM" on the bottom of the chassis.

Much obliged.

I now have a rolling chassis so I did a mock-up to make sure things are where they are supposed to be.  Still need a little more clearance at the back of the hood opening.  I'm going to try and rattle can this one as I really like the Tamiya TS-51 Racing Blue.  Tamiya doesn't have this color in the acrylic paint that I normally use.

Yep, looking really good Buddy?

Looking awesome. Thanks for removing that pesky TMGM. The stance is killer and I love your color choice.

Pro Street is neat, very well done. I have plans on doing a '55 Chevy once I finish the other 22 stalled projects I got going...

[SpikeSchumacher]

Looking tough ??

I have half of the interior issue solved.  Not sure what to do with the back of the door panels.

Time to brush up on those scratch building skills.  couple styrene triangle side filler panels and a simple floor between the tubs to the back window should do it IMHO.

Yup, I hear ya.

Well, I shot some chrome on the bumpers and grille yesterday and it was a fail.  I'll need to strip them and start over.

*Update*  I have now stripped all the script off the car and the bumpers will be painted body color for a more modern Pro Street look.

I’m a little late to the party… Looking great Bob! These cars do look good tubbed out. That engine is very sinister looking, love it. As for the interior issue, exactly what Donald said above ^^^^. The blue is a great choice too. 
 

Cheers, Steve

Thanks Steve.  Never late to the party.  Just leave your party gift on the table at the front door ?

Looking really good. I like it.

[bobss396]

FWIW, I have been using Duplicolor chrome paint, definitely better than looking at kit chrome with mold flash. I just did some bumpers for a Mustang AWB I have going.
