Holy ****, so are you done now Mark??? That thing is JUST SICK! What size engine is that?
Almost done! It's a stock displacement 346 but it has a big cam, stage 2 LS6 heads, 11:1 compression, and much much more...

Is that original fiberglass or... ?
The only original fiberglass is the inner door skins and the driver side outer door skin. The rest is all new hand laid in custom molds.

What size tires are that in the back?
The rear tires are 295/45/18.
