Albert....AWESOME! Looks Great! My only comment is that front spoiler....hides the mystic of it being a sleeper. But still very cool! Can`t wait to see it at CB09. Hell bring it to Vette Fest its only 2 weeks away.

That's really awesome. I'd leave the wheels without hubcaps, it's a killer look!

Albert, I, too, love the sleeper look. Do you have the dog dish caps to go with it? And are those by any chance Diamond Back Classic redlines?? Very cool!!

Awesome idea and incredible work, Al. I wonder why a ZL-1 never made it into a Chevelle, at least you get to experience it first hand now.
I can't believe how quick you turned this around, you just got this about a year ago if I recall. You should include a before picture in the thread.

I too wonder why not in a Chevelle..driven a ZL-1 powered camaro(mine)(not anymore)..and can see why they did that..but after driving this Chevelle for even just the little bit I have..this really had the potential to be a geat race car.
turnaround was very quick as the car really needed no panel reaplacement other than new fenders and a hood...adn I was on a mission to get it done
