well i seen that other people were posting pics of there chevelle so i figured id post mine.... its my own version of pro-tour. it has full global west tubular suspention and b-body spindles. the car rides on air-rides airbags on all 4 corners. the rims are intro matrixs, 22x11 and 19x8. it has a full rockford fostgate stereo and full leather and suade interior. i'll let the pics do the talking though, if you have any questions just ask and leave your opinions also.

Very nice 70!
Do you have a side shot of the car, I want to see that wheel combo.
In the top photo it looks like the flames are on the trunk lid, but the 2nd from the bottom photo I don't see any, do I need glasses or is it just the photo :geek:

Not a reader there.. perhaps I'm mistaken and I haven't seen it before.
Anyway, it's sweet and it's good to have more A-bodies here (we're taking over!). Welcome aboard.

He posted here when it was under construction. Remember the thread about the rear wheel size?
Slownova, you need to tell everyone how long this project took from start to finish. It turned out nice, I really like the flames.

it was a 3 month total build which came down to 24 hours a day for the last 6 days of it.

very very nice and a real quick build time, but the rear wheels are just TOO BIG for my tastes, but other wise killer how's all the Fosgate equipment????

I thought you were going to Des moines??????? Do you have any other goodguys shows planned? I would like to see the car in person! It is good to see another young guy with some taste and a sense of style....
The car looks great!

Slownova-
The car looks incredible! What is the screen on the dash? Is it nav or just part of the fosgate system. Great job in 3 months!

yea we had some last min problems with paint. don't ask lol :enguard:
but im trying to make KC for sure. i love the fostgate stuff in my car. its insanely loud, which no one still understands. the screen in the dash is for the stereo. the reciver plays radio, cds, and dvds.

Super car. Love the fact that it is different, from the dash to the size of the wheels, flames etc. Seems to be very well done. Congrats.
However, there is no way you are going to make me believe you did this all in three months. Ordering parts can sometimes take that long. R&D takes at least that long alone. Now if you are talking after paint etc. and refering only to the install, maybe yes.
Bye the way, I have some swamp land in Florida for sale. Premium view. As my father always said, "Don't try to Bull sh_t a Bull sh_ter."

paint was done yes. rims were ordered earlier becouse i knew they would be a while to get but motor assembly install and building all the stereo, interior, wires and making it a running driving viechile minus paint took 3 months yes.

How did you get the 22's and 19" rims to fit? I didn't think you could do that.
BTW: I have a 70 chevelle that I am working on now. Your car is
Inspirational.

Regardless of how much time it took, the result is awesome. I really like the flames under the hood!!:drool:
i can validate the build took three months. and six days for a majority of the assembly. lets just say i'll never eat a mc chicken or a double cheese burger everagain :rotfl:
