Some more
Thanks everyone! It's really encouraging to see an interest in my work. I'm not trying to please everyone, but if you don't like it wait a while! It isn't finished!
Answering some more questions. I don't have the coil overs installed yet, are they cool? I've seen some guys split a leaf but I really like the look of the coil overs. It's up in the air at this point. The tractor tires are for show, and so are the sprints. I want to paint whitewalls on both of them which would render them almost useless on the street. They are just so freaky to look at, matches the car. And I've tried to keep everything that I can Chrysler because I don't really like to mix that stuff up. I want a 440 but the 383 is cool.
Here's some more work, primarily widening the keystones to 18 or so inches I don't recall exactly what they ended up being. I didn't want them all the way on the outside anymore for practicality (i know i just talked about not caring but an 9 foot wide car is a bit much). And I didn't want to lose the body line, so my ride height on the rear is now this. I really don't think it needs to be any lower but if i had to, i could slap some normal wheels on it and slam it till the rockers scraped.
Pics of the wheels and tires.
I got this huge shotgun style finned hoodscoop for my birthday and I really love the way it looks with the BBC headers, but a few weeks later I found some Chrysler short rams off a 69 or so and I love them more. I also want to build my own headers, so I think I'll incorporate some supports for the rams.
You can also see that the grill shell is taller than the scoop. Not awesome. But the cross rams are awesome. Pics of those to come.
It was a look, not one I think I liked as much as I do the cross rams but it will always be an option. I really stinking love this scoop though haha.
