Looks OK, if your gonna build a "pro street" car there shouldn't be any need for flairs to cover the rear tread, can't tell what size rear wheel/tire combination he has. Doesn't say if he's using the stock corvette rear or switched to a solid axle.

Way too much air between the fenders and the front tire for my taste, paint is pretty wild :) , velvet in the interior went out a long time ago.

Just my 2 cents on it.

It looks like a lot of cars that are thrown together without any thought on how everything goes together. As mentioned earlier the front tire / rim combination does not look good. The blue valve covers look out of place also. As far as the rear end it is only a 383, there are lots of those on the forum not breaking rears. My 454 puts 450 hp and 470 tq to the ground and so far so good.

Maybe I am in the minority, but I do not like it.

The body could be painted the insides could be reworked. The motor looks as if she should run. i think it is a nice project for someone. i have atleast 10500 in my car now.

The color combinations make me want to :U
What's with that purple velour in the interior, is this a pro-street car or a pimp mobile?
I'm sorry about that, I shouldn't of dissed the car, there is no accounting for other people's tastes.

Don't forget the 2" carb spacers on "TOP" of a tunnel ram intake.. Do like the aluminum plate that holds the gauges, etc...

I'm particularly fond of the two foam "Fun Noodles" at the base of the windshield.

I hate to be blunt but I wouldnt get caught in that ---well unless there was more purple fur in the interior! WOW I agree the purple foam at the base of the windshield is a nice touch - reminds me of those water toys for the kids in the pool - Geeez guys dont knock the valve covers -- They match the carbs Silly you :steering:
