DrKerry Posted March 29, 2013 Share Posted March 29, 2013 Something I've been working on for awhile now. I am using a Corvette chassis underneath. It will use the driveline from the Vette but with a vintage look to the induction. I am putting on the older style Inderle Injectors (8 injectors) on top of the Vette engine. I'm thinking of going with an eye catching orange color over a gold base to get the color to pop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrKerry Posted March 30, 2013 Author Share Posted March 30, 2013 I'll post some more in a few days or so. Gotta get more work done on it. Still mocking up the engine bay area and suspension right now. I'm having to narrow the entire suspension to fit the Nova body. I'm having to relocate a-arms and all that good stuff.

DrKerry Posted March 31, 2013 Author Share Posted March 31, 2013 I thought so too. Funny thing with this car is I was at a build and bull with friends and I was just messing around. I had brought the Vette parts for another build and got to horsing around with this and thought this would look kool as heck. So next thing I knew this was falling together!!!!
