Re: Completed: 72 Chevelle SS

Mike it looks pretty good. Pretty clean build. But might I suggest rubbing out that paint a little?

Paint is smooth as glass, its just a little dusty as a I don't have a proper place to store built models until we are in our new place...ie the top of the TV.

What color is that? I really like it, not a fan of the interior color though. That last pic crackes me up!

I'm not sure I follow what happened to the wheels though, did the kit come with those...Cragars, are they? "Bullet holes?" And then you drilled the holes? Did you not use the Keystones?

Re: Completed: 72 Chevelle SS

Yes i drilled out the "custom" wheels that came in the kit. The colour is from Canadian Tire, its called Dark Met. Green and is from their "near match" line of auto paints.

Sweet chevelle , I like what you did with the wheels ! Do you have any engine pictures ? Did you use the EFI set up or the stock four barrel ?
