1970 Chevelle SS clone, I builtthis car with my dad in a 2 car garage on our spare time. The car was originallyfrom North Dakota and the owner moved to Washington in the 80’s and it was adrag car. In the Early 90’s he tore the car apart to build a custom frame andwas going to give it a makeover. It ended up sitting in his garage for the next20 years and I purchased it in 2012. We did all of the rear tub work and metalwork in the trunk. We could not get any kind of steering to work on the frontend with a engine mounted and decided to buy a stock frame and grafted thefront of the stock frame to the aftermarket rear custom frame. We reinforcedthe frame, mocked up all of the suspension, verified it was square and bodymounts lined up and then pulled the body off of the car again. The frame thenwas painted gloss Black, the suspension was color matched and the brakes and fuellines ran. We mounted the engine and trans and broke in the cam while the bodywas not on the car. The car went on a rotisserie and the metal work wasfinished on the bottom side, undercoated, fire wall was smoothed out and jamsgot painted, the bodywork was done while on the rotisserie as well. We put thebody on the frame for the final time and we finished the prep work for paint. Ibought new metal fenders. My brother and I painted the car and then had it cutand buffed and we started the reassembly. After the car was finished I drove itto a couple of local shows for a couple of years on a weld racing wheel with 31inch tall by 15 wide and pizza cutters on the front. In 2018 I bought the newwheels and tires. I had to shorten the rear end another 1.5 inches on each sideand had the axles cut down and ground new splines. The wheels are a 3 piecewheel that are color matched 24x15 in the rear with Pirelli P-Zero tires,22x8.5 up front with Pirelli P zero tires. I have a ton of time and love intothis car but I have my eye on another project and cant built that withoutletting a toy go. I have 800+ pictures of the build and can answer anyquestions you have.
