Yes Shaggy you are right, it must be 4 ". That is also what I widened it, meaning 10 - 11 cm on each side, I miscalculatet. I will take pics tomorrow when I put the chassis on a trailer, when I take it to a local drag race.

I will post detailed pics of the rear soon. By the way, what do you guys think of the side mirrors I made? Good or not so good?
Who is the other person Nitro? Nate?

3 weeks ago I took a pic of my finished bodywork. Things I did so far are:

• creating a front turbine
• mold on the front bumpers
• widen rear Fenders
• attach side intakes
• fix wavy Body with more than 50 kg filler
• strenghten front Body with metal Frame

Currently I am dismentling the Impala SS with manual transmission and 383 block

Thank you. I already did a lot of fiberglassing in past. (A-Team Van, K.I.T.T., other custom cars)

Thing is, I do as much as I can myself. I like working all alone. Asking various car guys how they would do it and then I start.

At the beginning of this year I started with the chassis:

Frame lengthened:

Sandblasted and painted:
