The Hammerhead project

[showme]

Well heres the front clip roughed in with the head light covers built.I still need to build the buckets for them but this is the general look of the nose.

This should be an interesting project! Keep up the good work. The pics of the nose with the projectors favored the new Camaro when I first glanced at it... very 'nasty' looking !

Looking like a Decepticon! (Sorry... just got back from the movie).

Seriously.. I wish I had half your fab skills.

Those headlights kick a$$!!

Looking pretty wild! That thing in jet black would be just insane, especially with those CCW wheels.

[Project69]

Love it.

Here's a few more pic's.

Thanks to Venomous,Here it is with the CCW's.

That looks badass. I think I would do gloss black on the louvers though and not red.

only if you could make somthing to close the front up it would look even more bad ass it just looks like its missing somthing

I just threw some color on it to show the louvers.Nothing is in stone yet on the paint.It will get painted a color (not sure on it yet). The flat black will go away too on down the road.

I still have to refab the spoilers and set them to the shape of the front and still flow air rite.I might do a grill or grills after that if needed.When I get there I might throw a few things out on it for some input! Thanks.

[Project69]

I wont even give my input because its more fun to see what you want to do to it then what i have to suggest about it lol

Keep up the great work!!!!

[showme]

I enjoy the input!There are alot of great ideas here and alot of them are the same as my own.Everyone still has different tastes and it's cool to see how others would do it!

well, I wasn't quite feeling it until I saw the shot w/ the top down. I'm starting to get your concept.
the '70s vettes had the curse of wicked factory styling coupled w/ bad pcyhedelia/disco/IMSA/show car ideas. seems no one was happy w/ a vette back then until they flared it, jacked it up, and put an L88 hood on it. that being said, you are taking your idea of how to do a bad 70s custom the RIGHT way. it's cool, as long as you take it all the way, and I think you can/will.
(some said they think that the 3rd gen vettes are the worst, but I just LOVE the '68-'72s, esp an LT1 '70 ragtop. the '73 mishmash leaves me cold, the '74/'75 are a little better, it all went down hill from there).

I agree,There was some weird vettes that came out of the 70's.My 71 was one of them!I could not tell that it was a 71 by looking.Someone had even replaced the eggcrates with laterstyle vents,removed the bumpers put an ugly square nose on it and flap style flares,ect,.It's a shame too cause it was a BB 4spd.(All long gone!)I like the 68-72 the best,as c-3's go.This vette is more of a modernized road racer of the day.(greenwood,ect,)Although it is very custom it all has a function to it.It will be driven daily,and has allways been.It set's on C-4 Z-51 suspension and drives and handles very well.

Great job on taking a vision and following through with it. When I build my cars I can see them before they are done. I have learned during the process only a select few can see what I see. Constructive critism is good when the intent is to improve upon.
I see where your going so keep up the good work man !
