first off this is going to be pic heavy. been wanting to do a pro street type car for a while so i started this thing about a month ago. basic 69 chevelle snap kit from amt, scratch brass chassis in its 3rd configuration. i wanted the full interior so ended up throwing the motor in the trunk. wheels were turned by me and the tires are from a testors 32 ford kit(i wanted the proper big and little pro street tires) and recast them in urethane. i havent decided on wheel inserts or not, i kinda like the "centerline" look of the late '80's early '90's which is what i was going for. engine block is from ertl 65 chevelle and the breathers i made on the lathe. the tranny and rearend housing are from a ertl 67 firebird. after a couple of test laps, found that she doesnt corner worth a crap and thats ok, but with the weight out back she will pull the front tires and keep them up about halfway down the back straight. got the base color on. two more colors to go and a heartbeat graphic decal. i want one of those flashy obnoxious paintjobs of the era
