Conversation Between 1coolC2 and glenandsonja

I do not know what your time table is, but I will be starting that part of my build late summer/early fall and I might be able to do something to help you at that time if interested. You can check out my current project I'm working on (70 Nova) at:

Once that is finished up for racing this year, I will be getting back on the 65 Coupe. Hope that info helps you out and good luck on your project, Mike builds a great chassis, you will LOVE it!! Let me know if you have any other questions, happy to share info with you.

Glen,

That my friend was allot of fabrication to accomplish. I disassembled the BB core support and rebuilt the entire thing to accommodate the space necessary between the hood. I also had to build my own hinges to lift the hood out and away, vice the simple OEM that just fold it down to the core support. Next I created a core plug of the air bridge assembly and made a mold to create the carbon fiber part. It was one of the most challeging parts of the build but certainly one of my favorite things about the car. I am currently building a 65 Coupe on another SRIII chassis and will probably do the same mod, but with some updates. I have been asked by many folks to build them an assembly, but I just have not had the time and the cost would not be cheap due to the labor/fabrication time and materials involved.

I saw a pic of one of your C2's with the air intake coming over the top of the radiator. I'd like to do this on my 65/SRIII/LS7/T56 to get better cold air intake but didn't think it was possible. Can you offer any advice on how I could go about doing this on mine?

Thanks!
