LS7 62 Belair Bubbletop (PAINTED!)
Here's some of the bits I've added this week. Re-cut and sectioned the front bumper to tuck and make even. Cut up another bumper to make the air dam and lower the look of the front overhang. Fabricated the front splitter,( adding racer'ish tow hooks) cut in air extractors @ front fenders, fabricating skiffs to split the sections.Fabricated all the interior panels in carbon fiber,installed the c/f rocker extensions,added mount for rear wicker/ Gurney flap. 4" for track days, stepped 3" for street use. It took a couple of mixes to get the matte clear where I wanted it for the carbon fiber pieces. Tuesday 5/27 Painted the '62 $18 @ Home Depot,rustoleum aluminum mixed with anodized bronze. Hour to tape, 45 min to paint with brush and roller. Really, no s#*t....

Awesome work!
Something puzzles me... Why the hood pins? Has something changed since I saw it in Bakersfield (BMW style hold setup then)?

Very Nice! I like seeing those bigger cars done with pro touring upgrades. The stance with the wheels tucked looks killer too!
