      pics, Pics, PICS!!!!!!


      Our 1970 Chevelle

      I couldn't take it anymore. There are still some minor touchups but this is the lastest to brew at the Kris Horton factory. Huge thanks to him and his talents.
      • TBI LS6 454/4L60E
      • 13" /C-5 calipers up front, 12" /Camaro LS1s in the rear
      • C5 Vette Gunmetal Rims 17x8.5 front/18x9.5 rear


      That's all I'm spilling for now but there's much, much more.
      The wesite will be down for the next two weeks while it's rennovated to accomodate the pics and reflect the new direction the car is taking. Car is coming together nicely but more details will be available shortly. We aim to have the car finished by April.

      What do you guys think? (yes, the photos are in color )

      That would be wicked at night with Halo headlights. Looks great.

      Thanks for the compliments! I'm hoping the car is well recieved but I'm sure it will be. I was contemplating a halo-system but it would be too "bling" for the rest of the very intentionally understated car. The headlights have a polished aluminumn ring that clamps around them that the headlight springs attach to holding them in place when you make adjustments. The pic shows them against the headlight bezels that are black prisma-chromed. That's it...nothing too spectacular. Wanted to keep them polished to match the accents on the grill and tailpipes.

      Brent- your SS dash is going to a good home! Thanks.

      Very nice. One could almost mistake it for that new 2000-something Chevelle.

      Good Lord!!! that is by far the single most sinister looking Chevelle i have ever seen. I gotta agree though, Halos would really turn up the "Don't F**k with Daddy" look. what size tires you plan on running on that beast?

      I have one suggestion-

      Headlamps from a BMW 5 series, AKA the 'angel eyes'. That would look great with the rest of the car.

      All great questions!!!
      Tyler- I've entertained the thought more and more BUT I was out at the track last week and more than a few of the acuras/hondas had some kit on their cars to mimic the angel eyes. Since that, I have the dreaded ricer-association bad taste in my mouth from it! I trying to steer clear of the bling. If I could find a way to do it tastefully, I might consider it. Maybe I'll see you soon and we can see what happens.

      Derek- the rear 18 rims are 9.5s so I'm only squeezing 295s back there (and even thats a push) The front 17s are 8.5 and I'm putting 255s on it. I have both the tires selected already so that the sidewall measurement is equal front and back (within .07 of an inch; not bad, eh?)

      Dave- Maybe. On the 70 Chevelle, the base of the windshield is covered/supported by a ploished aluminumn strip that spans across the entire base of the contour of the windshield in the cowl area. Flushing and maintaining that piece/look would be challenging. We just bolted the blasted, POR15ed frame back up to the car last week and I want to finish the drivetrain mockup and rearend before with continue with the bodywork (rear is already completely shaved of trunk lock and side reflecters) So I'm not sure but leaning more on the "probably not" side.

      personally I've always thought the halo, or angel eye, kits have looked cool. My buddy did them on his all black Tahoe, and damn do they look good. All the halo really is is a set of LEDs placed on opposite ends of a clear peice of round plastic. You can wire them to be always on, as driving lights, or as your day time runners. I was going to put a knockoff set in Monsoon, but im still not sure if I like the idea of a non-circular light ring. I'm kinda suprised that more of you guys with camaros havent done this swap, but then again, im not most of you

      here is a link to both the basic round versions and the ones i was going to use.
