SHROUD-a must!
Is that Pete Feduns Peters Cheater from Fedun Performance out of Niagara Fall, Ontario?
Looks pretty good to me.
There you go!.
Perfect!
That lettering is all hand lettered too, no press-on graphics!
Tapered with a keyway? That's a boat wheel!
I drove my Cutlass street/strip car every day and to the track and back with 10"/26 Hoosier Slicks and never got stopped but when it rained I'd...
Niagara drag strip in Niagara Falls had on in the 60's I remember and it always worked great.
Pretty sure this was built in Buffalo, NY at Ron Gerstners body shop.
Just put a piece of rug over the battery, problem solved.
Don't like that license plate hanger and light messing up the contour of the top rear. I'd hang it from the bumper. Just my choice though
Forgetaboutit!
Built right in Williamsville NY at Ron Gerstners Custom Shop
Best to buy a new tank or have one made.
Hope you change that rubber fuel line to metal
You're worried about a speedo not working on a 64 year old car? This is not the hobby for you Sir!!!!
Way overkill lol
Hope you have a convertible top for it just in case it rains or is too hot
Danger Will Robbins,way to close for comfort. Any flexing and you're looking for a new radiator. Build a shroud for it and your worries are over.
Shroud,shroud,shroud, an put a large pusher in front of the radiator for parades!
You must have a shroud!
Is that a 58 Pontiac sedan delivery in the picture?
What a beautiful job you did.
Yes, back to the builder ASAP and don't touch it!
That 4000 stall is gonna make it fun.
A shroud is a must, and a thermostatically controlled pusher fan. It will stay at 180 no matter how hot is is out.
