Default progress

I received my chassis yesterday.

LS2

body is off the frame (for a few weeks now) and looks incredible. amazing how solid it is. the new trans, also pictured.

<img src="http://www.formulafoto.com/chevelle/chevelle_002.jpg">

new dash. stewart warner green line gauges. the surround is actually a really cheap piece of molded plastic. so we decided to do a piece of turned aluminium behind the gauges.

rear truck-arm suspension.

Default Re: thx.

What else is there to do for chassis? I'm not really in-the-know. I can understand gazillion other motor options but I like this one.

Default went with the "DESTROY" toggle.

not sure where I'm going to put that yet. kinda leaning towards building a console and mounting it on there (between the seats). likely a winter project.
