Its been awhile since ive posted on here...Its just been hard find time to post. But now since we finished Marks car ive been able to find more time to work on my car, I have a few things to finish up on it and still waiting for my brakes which im told its going to be a few weeks yet. also deciding if i want to get a carbon fiber hood from Tyler at anvil! its only money right! lol

Ive made quite a few changes to my car over the last year or so, and its just been a factor or finding time and the money to just get it done! but its coming together just the way imagined it.:)

I think it's Marina Blue, which is the same color I painted a 67 Nova I had. Beautiful color whatever it is.

That's what thought. but there is two sades of blue gm used that are real close. Thanks Jody.I need to get some rinderings done so my wife might change her mind about my color choice.

Thanks guys! Im really looking forward to putting some miles on it here soon.

The color is close to marina blue, its just a Diamont Color Max chip that i picked out.

Paul, I love your car! I sold my 67' nova 10.5 drag car so I could build another 67' with a pro-touring flair after I saw yours! I cant wait to see more pics with the wheels on it! I love the suttle aprroach to your build. What seats are you running?

Hey guys, well even though this thread is a few years old I thought I would just update it with some of the new things going on with the car, I have not had much time to work on the car lately or to post as often as I used to, between buying my first home and my dad and I opening our shop. Its kept me quite busy.

As earlier pictures show the car was all done for a summer and I really enjoyed it, but it just seems like I cant just leave well enough alone. :willy:

I picked up a new front clip from DSE last year, and had a ls3 418ci built over the summer and ive just been picking away and getting parts together and getting everything all mocked up.

my goal is to have the car ready to go in a few months. Ive had the whole car back together and mocked up and its currently blown apart for a few mods to the firewall and to repaint the floor pan, firewall and a bunch of other misc parts. Then to start the wiring hopefully within the next few weeks.

here are a few pictures I have, Ill post some more up as I progress.

Your wiring guy thinks he should probably be the first to test drive it for you when it's finished. You know, just to make sure everything is okay with the wiring;) :_paranoid

I think as long as neither of run into any problems we should have both cars done around the same time.

Slowly but surely the car is coming together. We have been super busy at the shop with projects and finishing up Marks 67' I'm not going to make RTTH like I had hoped, But I'm very happy with how the car is turning out!
We should have the car running here in a few weeks:thumbsup:
Cant wait to drive the car with the new engine and the DSE sub. It should feel like a whole new car!

I keep telling him Chip Foose can build an entire car in a week. Why isn't this car done? Seriously though the car is coming together really nice. GG Indy :unibrow: make it happen.

The car looks amazing. I can't wait to see it in person. Is this Version 3.0 or 2.1?

Heck, it was sweet back in the 1.0 days.....

Sales@Dutchboys
09-06-2012, 07:48 PM
Thanks guys! I think this will be version 3.0? lol I just cant seem to keep it alone. This time its done. for good. I'm very happy with how everything is turning out. With the new DSE stuff and the LS engine. Cant wait to just jump in it and drive it!
I wish I could pay myself to work on it at the shop lol and it would be done already. But their seems to never be enough time in a day to get shop projects done! :willy:
I think I see some all nighter's in the next few weeks if i'm going to make indy...
