@Bird, I have a pair of alloys that I narrowed up for the front. The aluminum is soft enough it's fairly easy. I just rubbed it on 400 grit sand paper for a bit.

I came real close to putting those ones there, but I've been looking at a bunch of cars from the 70s, and they all have that mis-matched rim thing going, so I wanted do do something like that.

@Son_Gokou, Ya know I love to paint, but I happen to like black, I dig stripes on muscle cars, and I really dig the Chevelle/SS logos. So I decided to accent what was there.

@sg219, lol, Yeah dude them Dodges always look good on paper, but they're heavy mugs. Figure no one at the strip is completely stock, so with a little warming over a Chevy could easily take a Dodge, and personally, if you ask me, they look a hell of lot better doing it. I never cared for Dodge/Plymouths boxy designs.

The '69/'70 Chevelle/El Caminos where available with the 397. Based off the same block design as the 427, it has excellent power to weight ratio, and is one of Chevy's best motors.

So bring on your Dodges, I'm not scared.

In fact I think I'm coming after Payaso's hoosier Challenger. Hey Payaso you got your pink slip (or RS reciept) ready?

I thought I had replied to this, but now I really have to. Not only is that thing ready, but I gots some ghetto footage of it with CW. You did a fantastic job on that Chevelle man.

The reciept is ready, and has been signed. You got yours?

I feel like I'm in the movie "Grease" lol

Wow, I'm noticed!

But really; how did you go about lowering the front tab? Did you adjust the tab on the chassis, or did you carve a slot in the car shell?

i just love everything about and would not change a thing except a tach and the soap bar numbers on the windows, i need to know where are the alloys comeing from cause i have been looking all over the net and come up empty handed every time. man if i get some alloys i might really go freaky on some mods. love the car its awsome to say the least. y r the pimp master, i quit...lol

I cut the tab off and make a new one. That seem the most practical way to me.

I feel like I'm in the movie "Grease" lol

Just saw that the other day, that's probably what got me started on the whole "pink slip" thing.

Thanks, but I'll keep the beer.

Thanks, man... the fatties came from the the black motorworks muscle car thing. I've been saving them for the right car, and this is the one! Lots and lots of shaving later, they actually clear the body. They're so much bigger in diameter, they actually make the car run like it's runnin' KIT Racer gears... it's running orange gears. And dual cells and mosfets.

...mopar...

Aww man, that's crazy, those the same tires I'm running with one of my Camaro bodies. It just didn't look the same.

I gotta drop the rear end. That looks bad ass the way it tucks into the wheel well.
