In the last 2 weekends I’ve been able to put on 500 miles, trying to shake out minor problems, also stretch her legs and got up to 120 for brief time.

Wow where do u live that the speed limit is 120 lol. Thats awesome and pics look nice.

Finally got the last pieces of the puzzle for the outside of the car. I know not many people like wings on the back of these cars but this wing is different than most , I love it!! Let me know what you think, I can take it. I was also wanting to kind of copy the wing on my race car because this is supposed to be the street version.

Amazing build/thread. I will have to go back through a few times, great fab work.

[634chevelle]

Thanks 72cutlassS

Finally some more updates, my attempt at making a center console, fixed steering wheel air bag and wrapped it, installed custom emblem and ring, made sub box and installed radio system. Also got some different front seats from Braum. I love how they feel sitting in them. Now I just have to make a new rear seat to match.

Wow, super happy you bumped this, or I might have never seen it! Really original and so well executed.

[thumper877]

Console turned out super nice for first time. Looks like you had a little interior experience. Looking awesome

Hate making this suggestion after all that center console work but, if you like the new front seats, how about a second set for the back? Make it a 2+2 instead of a 5 seater, and extend the center console down the length of the car. No idea if that would even be possible without major metal work on the floor though, it might require cutting the floor pan out and lowering it a few inches.

I'm late to the party, but wow! Awesome build! If you don't mind, what engine management system did you use, and do the paddle shifters actually work to control the 4l80e?

[634chevelle]

The seats are too tall and the exhaust tunnels would be in the way. Thanks for the compliments and ideas!

Using Holley dominator Efi and yes paddles work.

Looks great.
Whats the colour name of this blue? Is it a gm color or custom? Thanks

[634chevelle]

This the color

[634chevelle]

I scaled car last night. Anyone have any guesses on weight and percentages?

[Vimes]

42 percent to the rear, 56 percent to the front, +-2%, and 3900lbs total, of course. What else could it have been?

[634chevelle]

Very close Vimes

Here’s some pics of the finished engine bay. Pretty happy with the way it turned out.

[634chevelle]

In the pics I didn’t have pcv valve in , that’s the open hole on right valve cover.

That looks amazing! Great job!
