What did you use from the corvette? I am building a car right now and could use some parts from the vette, unless of course you already used them or aren't.

I like this build and the color is perfect. I'm confused that you didn't have the hood done when you painted the body. Will the hood be black? Metallics are hard to match in my experience. Nice build whatever,I had a '66 Chevy II SS many years ago.

Looking good Shane, paint looks great, and nice colour choice!!

Like the chrome on sides and window trim added, personally IMO the hood would look better without the big bulge, or at least greatly reduced, and just the ZR1 style window grafted in, given the rear tire size used, but if you put some significant meats on the rear, then the big hood bulge would fit the look, if you know what I mean!?
