Here is another new project we are making some progress on. This one is a 67 chevelle for a customer out of Europe who is looking for a clean classic without a lot of re-inventing or crazy body mods , with gobs of power and great ride quality. He he actually found us because of the 67 chevelle we did for Buddy Shores a few years ago and liked that car so much he wanted to build a "clone" as far as the styling goes ,just change powerplant and add the independant rear.
Short list of parts will be: Kenne Bell blown LS3 with 4L85E by Turn Key Engines
Roadster Shop Fast Track IRS chassis, tucked bumpers and smoothed out engine bay and clean simple interior, nice and simple with no hassle

That's going to be a sweet ride. The body looks in great shape already.

You know a car is going to be beautiful when you love what you see and it isn't even finished.

Yeah this body was pretty good shape, driver quarter replacement , and 2 small patches were all there was, always nice to spend money on "fun stuff" and not have spend money just to get to a starting point , but you never really know until she is naked

That car was incredible last year at SEMA. The stance was spot on and all of the little details were amazing. I'll see if I have any pics from November.

Saw the SEMA pics of this car, but had no idea it was the Goolsby car in this thread since this thread was never updated. Car is phenomenal. Goolsby, can we get some more detailed pics of the car?
