Default 1967 Chevelle 6.0 L LQ4

I bought this car 5 years ago because it was already back-halved and caged. I was told it "just needed a paint job"...
But of coarse after grinding the cracking bondo out and finding all the rust, I had to weld in new 1/4 panels on both sides as well as replace other body panels.

Anyone who has owned a 4th Gen will get a laugh out of the first (just to get it running) air cleaner set up.. It's F Body inspired! Lol









If you look close you can see my son riding his bike in the 1/4 panel














Guess what the hole in the fender is for?





Current air cleaner












Below is the stop light view with the hood off


And here is proof that it fits...

[QUOTE=JohnnyFbomb;18439238]Beautiful car! The paint looks awesome!

Thanks, this was my first complete paint job in my home shop.

The secret (and what takes for ever) is all the wet sanding and buffing after you are done painting.
Spaying the paint was the easy part...Lol
