64 chevelle

[beadblaster]

Here are a couple of pics on my 64 chevelle. I did a mini tub on it as well as put a 509 cadillac engine in it. Tires are 315/35/17 with vintage wheel works v45,17/11 rims. I kept the body stock with all the original trim redone. I modified the hood with a set of 1964 chevelle hood inserts. Interior is all in red leather with a set of new trans am seats cut down to make them low backs.

Lookin good, what flat caps did you go w/ for the VWW'S?

Here are a few more pics of the interior and hood. I will try and get a few more pictures when it warms up as it is 20 below 0 here. The caps are a billet cap and I will have to dig thru my recepits to find out where I got them. I tried to keep the interior looking mostly stock by replacing everything with reproduction parts. I put a set of tpi gauges in the stock dash. Speedo on the left,tach in the center and a quad gauge on the right. You have to look twice to see that they are not the stock gauges. The caddy enginge was a lot of work to fit in as the early chevelles are very narrow between the upper control arms and the caddy engine is a wide motor.

What kind of bucket seats are those? They look really good the way you covered them to look stockish.

Seats are from a 2002 trans am. I took the headrests off and cut the foam down on the top of the backs.

Attached are some pictures of the dash and billet caps. The caps are made by a company called scott drake.

Any pics of the trunk? How much did you mini tub it?

[thedude327]

The white paint with red interior definately gives the car an old school vibe, but has a modern feel with the dash and the tire/wheel combo. Nice blending of styles !!!
