Car Crazy 81 Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 Heres my latest project im working on this is my first drag car im building i thought about building a Bracket Racer for some time. I might need some assistance on this build to point me in the right direction. This what i had in mind. Heres the build. The wheels im using is from a AMT 57 Corvette Gasser which is close to resemble the Billet Specialities "Street Lite" race wheels.
W-409 Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 I will follow this one for sure. This is one of the best looking cars from the 80's. Are you planning to use original Six Cylinder Turbo engine, or swapping V8 engine for this one?

slusher Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 Love the wheels, looking forward to your build...
BKcustoms Posted November 3, 2012 Posted November 3, 2012 Nice project! Let me know if you need any reference pics, I just finished putting a SBC in my 1:1 Regal.
Car Crazy 81 Posted November 4, 2012 Author Posted November 4, 2012 Billy, Thanks for offering that will be helpful. Got back to work on the Regal tonight i'd removed the fuel tank, spare tire well, inner fenderwells & radiator shroud. I'd scratchbuilt a plate to fill the void where the A/C evaporator & blower motor once was.
