Yep, that's a beauty. Pin-drive Halibrands are part of the iconic appearance of the car, it annoys me when I see a Factory Five kit with 18" Mustang wheels and super-low-profile rubber. It works, but something just looks a bit "off".

What's the story on the Chevy?

True - some replicas don’t do justice to the original, but I suppose the owners like their cars nonetheless.

My BLISS55 is a $100,000 car (amount invested by the last owner who sold it to me) - it’s basically a new everything fame off - literally since the chassis and running gear, etc. comes from a Corvette. I always wanted one - back in the day - but they sure have become expensive! Anyway, the original running gear wasn’t all that great - so, it’s now a hot rod with a ZZ4 engine, air and ready to go.
