68' Fastback project

[72novadriver]

Thought I'd post up a pic of a new project I just started. It's going to be a full build for street and track days. Doing a full frame for it with a DSE chevy II front clip and a Art Morrison three link rear clip. Also has a built viper t56, 607hp ls3https://static1.pt-content.com/images/pt/2005/09/paranoid-1.gif. All details aren't figured out yet, but it should be fun. I'll post up pics along the way.

With the speakers enclosed in metal, stuff the speaker and sub enclosures with polyfill stuffing...Will vastly improve sound quality. A little trick I've learned over the years.

How much weight will you add to the car with all the mods? It's nice work but I haven't seen anyone state the weight differential before.

The car will be significantly heavier than it was in stock form. It's being built with weight in mind but not race car weight. When its fully assembled, and ready to be scaled I'm projecting it to weigh about 3650lbs at the most. The stereo equipment and all the sound and heat barrier insulation that it will have adds quite a bit of extra weight.

Here are a couple pics of the slightly extended rocker panel.
