looks great!

love the redline tires -- nice old school touch...

I used to hate that color (Lemonwood Yellow, later re-named butternut yellow) but I'm starting to really like it, as it's something different than the usual red, black, blue, etc. :cheers:

I've liked that color for a long time - my old hardtop 65 Malibu was pretty close to it (Crocus Yellow).

I like the color also seems to fit the theme of the car very well. It is dupont butternut yellow

[PairOf69's]

[Steve Chryssos]

I'm in love. Call me first when you sell it (but wait a while so I can save my pennies)

[KrisHorton]

Pretty slick ride. I'm working on some renderings for one of these cars right now and have gotten pretty hooked on the car myself. :cheers:

Wow, that's a sharp car! I love the stance and wheel/tire package. I think the 283 looks lost in that engine bay though. Come to think of it, even a big-block would look lost in there!

Man,I wish my Kumhos or Michelins had redlines.
Very cool car,Travis. That thing needs a 502 Ramjet.

It could use a big block thats for sure.......

TPI monte ss- I think two 283's would fit side by side or one in front of the other?????
