All box stock just tweaked the chassis a bit.

Love the 60s Chevy short track cars. This is a very good representation of that era. Great job Gary...

Very nice build, well done.

I was a Ford man back in this time period, but these Chevelle's always were great looking race cars.

Looks like you nailed the box art.  Those Chevelle's back in the day were extremely competitive and our 427 powered 58 Ford had its work cut out competing against them.  Great job on your build it looks just right.

Hi Gary,
What did you do to lower that rear end of the car? I'm building one and trying to figure out a way to make it look correct...like yours.
I thought of putting the axle on top of the leaf springs but that seemed too low and would look a bit weird.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
