Very interesting build. I like where you are going with this one. Couple of questions: What are the tubes running down the sides of the engines" Whre did you get the front spoiler?

The tubes are the blower intake feeds to the heads.    I have better pics on my other computer I swap them in when I get home tonight. The spoiler come with the CHEZOOOOM kit. I fitted in closer a bit and evened off the bottom of the fenders to clean up the lower edge. |

Cadillac powered 1964 Nova for my wife, NOBODY else thought of it and it is a one of a kind. Image being at the track. . . getting smoked by a C O R V A I R.  I'd leave with a bag on my head and over the car  |

Really starting to take shape. Maybe I missed what you are going to do with the exhaust. I can imagine six zoomies down each side would be very intimidating to the competition.

I'm planning on a dozen zoomies, but I am going to make them up when I can set the chassis and the body with all the tin work fitted up side down to fit them up. |
