By chance anyone have any large JPEG pictures of side shots of the 63 Pro Mod Corvette? I have found all kinds of head on and diagonal side shots but nothing that would help me from the side for scaling purposes.

I have looked at some of the members Photobucket sites, but the issue is when you try and blow them up they are really bad on the computer. I hate when Photobucket and others reduce the size of the picture.

This is what I run into.... I can see the rear fenders are much deeper and go into the original rear window line. But I can't see how this changes the rear window line or the back deck.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

That last pic that Rob posted is of my '63 build from a couple of years ago. Just click my Photobucket link and go to Album 24 and you can see the '63 I built from start to finish if its any help. Also, you may want to check Wayne's Fotki because he has a tremendous amount of reference pics for Pro Mods.

I was looking at this Turbo build today, I really like the hood almost makes me want to build up a turbo car. I can't tell if it is an optical illusion or not but it looks like in front of the wheel well it is also lengthened. This is why I was hoping to get a more straight on side view.

I appreciate the pictures guys... I really like the True Fire Vette as well. By any chance did they say who painted the True Fire? Mike Levalle by chance?

Here is one. If this works great if not let me know.

Thanks Kyle, this is pretty close to what I am looking for. Looks like this body doesn't run the larger wheel tubs that cut into the back split window.

Just bear in mind that there are multiple body styles incorporated with the 63 Vette. The rear fenders will look different when you are looking at a pro mod style wing or a pro stock style wing and there are also different heighth issues with different body styles.

Here are some that I have as research.
