Repstock Posted July 24, 2012 Author Share Posted July 24, 2012 That's so great, looks jus beautiful. I got a soft spot for a showroom build and you hit a home run. love it. Strange...I live in Columbus, Ohio, home of the Buckeyes, but some of the nicest people I've met in this hobby are from Michigan, home of the Wolverines. This hobby is really cool! P.S. I'll be rooting for you in your season opener. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Johnny Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Awesome replica of a '73 "G"-ride ! Say , is that a 402 or 454 under that Cherry Fire red hood ? That would be a 454. Beautiful build but it looks more like a 74 than a 73 great hubcaps were did you get them ?? Nope, the 73 was a one of a kind nose. 74-77 had the a different configuation.
