Welcome to ECC, Whacker! Looks like a killer combo with that 496 stroker. Good luck with it and this is the best site for help. :beer:

So if thats your (project), I can't wait to see what you really work on!!!:poke:
Don't let these other guys fool you, El Camino Central is the greatest site, but 68s are the best of all the rest!!!!
68s rule the world, and you got a very sharp one.
Welcome

Welcome aboard, Ivan! Sorry I missed you earlier. I was either knee deep in work or under the elky. Beautiful ride you have there.

I claim AZ as my second home. We have a house in between Parker and Lake Havasu.

"496 stroker"
*wipes drool from chin*

Beautiful car, and the best part you did it yourself.
I am looking forward to actually finishing this one.

In years past I have got all the way to final prime and ended up selling for far less than I have into them. I am not that little youngster anymore.

past projects include:

These were Body only though, not complete frame up.
1972 Buick Skylark
1965 Pontiac Tempest
1975 Chevy Stepside
1966 Chevy II
1974 Nova

As I said I am not that little youngster anymore.
I came here because as I go if I have questions I am certain that I can get answers simply based on the workmanship put into the cars that are owned and proudly displayed in the gallery.

I am new here too but will say welcome to you and wipe away the drool again.

And Welcome to ya.

For all that rice no doubt! :biggrin2:

I hope to have mine looking that nice some day. For now, I just want to get it reliable and safe enough to just cruise around in.
