Hello Pro-Touring enthusiasts, finally got my project on the road! So, I decided to introduce the "Black Pearl" to everyone.
I got the tub out of Texas about 5 years ago. She is a true "Frankenstein" build with over 3 miles of mig wire and 300 cut-off wheels to complete. I am proud to say everything was done by me (even though it took so long).

Damn! That looks bad ass!

I didn't think I'd ever say this, but the white lettering look cool on this car, especially all blacked out otherwise. Almost like a NASCAR.

Thank you BigTone I appreciate you!
I changed it up a little with the gloss black stripes and gloss detail pieces on the satin finish. The white tires seem to work for me with all the black.

Car looks amazing. What are the wheel specs and offsets?

Thank you,
The rims and tires are the ZR1 package, 19 x 10.5 front and 20 x 12 rear. Kind of build the car around them. Most people fit the package to the car, but I did the opposite on her.

Thats awsome 19x10.5 out front.. Did you use spacers front or rear?

My vision was to build a fat, low 69. I actually widened the front fenders 2" on each side and the rear 3" on each side. I spliced in gen 5 strut towers to the front subframe and ZL1 rear cradle and joined with the front. It drives beautifully!

That is an awesome ride. I am in the market trying to find a replacement 69. Sold mine years back. I would love to see your interior. Take care.
