Default PT a little different

Hi. My name is Jim and this is my starting point for a PT car. I have already done a little work, such as wheel, tires, but mostly just a good cleaning.




The car is a 1966 Avanti. The stock drivetrain is a Corvette 300HP 327. I am currently replacing all the suspension parts and putting Ford Cobra disc brakes on all 4 wheels.

In the garage, is a 400SBC and a ATI Procharger for it. I am considering a paddle shifted manumatic.

Feedback?

Very cool! I have always liked the Avanti, though I never quite got used to the "backwards" wheel openings.
