i never thought i would say this about McNord's car......."i love it"
you have been doing some interesting things over the years but its pulling together. i think the side skirt could use re-worked a little so its not so boxy and straight, but the car is looking great. and LOVE the spoiler design change. awesome

Thanks for all the compliments guys! There is still some work to do, the rockers do need some work but I was running out of time for the show so I just had to go with it at the time. Wheels are CCW's & will be staying uless your buying lol. As far as ground clearance it actually doesn't sit any lower than it did with the old gfx on, it just looks that way. I do need ramps to jack it up though. 
But thats ok lol. The old hood is sold, I had been torn between it & the sunoco for a while & somebody approached me about making one for them & I kind of liked the idea of the hood staying a "one off" so rather than making another I just parted ways with it.
I also have redone almost all of my suspension as well & done some painting on that & my under carriage. I will see if I can get some pics of that up soon too.

I have to say, I never quite knew if I liked your car since it is so "different", but I'd have to say now I love it. I wish I had half the skill you have and a place to do it, along with not being afraid to make such a huge transformation!! Great job

Sorry for the delay, I just got back from AZ for Super Chevy yesterday basically and back on a computer today.
It was barely a month ago I saw McNord's car in white, pretty cool. We met up on Saturday and I walked out to the parking lot and was literally speechless for like 5 minutes.
The design of the car is AMAZING in person. Looks like what you'd expect the 4th gen to look like today if they kept making them, just plain awesome.
Here's some more pics from the show... Keep in mind my car had fiberglass dust all over it for a week AND the entire CA and AZ desert. I spent an hour trying to clean it with quick detailer (couldn't find a car wash) and said F@CK IT (hence no tire shine) and went and had a jumbo $10 beer

Both cars look killer. I really like the satin, which paint did you go with? Loving the houndstooth on 6LE's car too, I'm planning on doing the same seats with white houndstooth soon.
