I used to only post my builds on Instagram, but they disabled my account for no apparent reason

Man really nice brings me back to my youth and those 70's street machines. Love it

It's like reading through a copy of Car Craft from 1978.

You have nailed the OTT look to perfection.

Thank you, these were before my time so I had to resort to online photos rather than experience. I did forget to "chrome" the diff cover, but any other tricks or "must have mods" back in the day?

 

Photo is a car from Hawaii that inspired my model

Beautiful looking paint finish and chrome details. I think this is what used to be called a "Street Freak". From what you can see of the suspension it looks as if that is done to the same standard as the paint work.

Wow, that's super cool Hein.  That is one great looking paint job!!?

Super slick paint job, and a great build!

[XYHARRY]

Really liking this one Hien, it is a very close likeness to the resource photo. I've been wanting to do one of these 'Street Freaks' for some time now, seeing yours has inspired me to get one done asap. Well done.

Cheers,

That's funny, I also had my instagram account canceled with no explanation, even after contacting them. I think they don't want old people to be on there.

Wow, you were actually able to contact them? I keep getting sent around in circles

Cool build.  Looks good in black.  I really dig the stance.

One "Heavy Chevy" for sure. Love it...

Very nice work. Beasty-looking for sure.
