    Here`s a little update with a couple pics of the car. I have approx. 500 miles on the engine so when I get home after the cold weather is finally gone, it`s time to drive.

    LOVE that detailed engine...but the stance, wheels, tires, curb height: Perfect!

    Just like they looked on the showroom floor with a San Jose detail! I was there, Courtesy Chevrolet...October. There were 3: 1 black, 1 red, 1 white.

    Great execution on a great subject. Everything correct!

    That is a really cool find. So many of those were just shitcanned back in the late 60's. What a shame. Is that a Honda bike behind you? OOOOH ! I apologize....................

    Fantastic! I had a black regular top , wanted a bubble. People used to argue they didn't make a bubble in 62, then one day a guy drove in in awhite one. Red is awesome. Jack
