I've got a 69 chevelle SS427 phase III clone. I would never try and pass mine off either. As a matter of fact, I used a 6 cyl car for my donor so that if I ever sold the car the next owner could not try to pass it off. I have went to great lengths to make mine as close to the real deal as possible. Of course I have a distinct advantage in that my uncle owned one and I grew up around it. Most of my parts came from him after he passed away. His car was not a candidate for restoration sadly. I wish I could have restored his car, rather than use a donor to bring it back to life. I guess you could say I have a bionic clone.

I think Jed should make his '70 50 50 Nova into a Yenko Deuce clone!

I love the look of a stinger hood and a MOTION paint scheme as long as it is meant to compliment and not deceive.

In no way shape or form is meant to deceive! I did it because I never saw one. I wanted to have a rolling (ehem, I mean tire burning) representation of a very rare Nova. I think it might have just as much pull as a BB??? Thanks for the compliment. Wanna go for a spin?

As soon as I get this photobucket/snapfish/attachment under 101 thing figured out, I will post pics of the 69. I'll try and dig out some of the old pics and see if I can scan them and get them on. The only pics I have or remember having are at family functions where the car is in the background of 70's Sunday's at Grandma's and reunions. There is a couple of pics that my son took playing with the camera in the garage on the Baldwin Motion picture gallery section. Good pics on the way. Just glad I won't get tomatoes thrown at me for posting them.

you bet
I had my son's Godfather visit yesterday to see my son off on his trip to Italy, he convinced me to take out the Chevelle, it was about 20 degrees! Once it was warm he was egging me on to drive like we did thirty years ago! I couldn't believe the red line shifts and tire spining!!! we were laughing our arses off and nothing broke!! I really dont beat on my car cause most everything underneath is original. scary !! I felt young and crazy for a few

That is exactly why I took what could be salvaged from my uncle's car and built me a car that I could drive the way my uncle used to drive me around. He gave me the fever when I was 7 or 8 and I have never gotten over it. I love to fry the hides on mine.

Jeff, I posted the photos you sent me in the members rides area. For resizing, I have found that "easythumbnails" works great. Nice ride Jeff.

Who is going to supply the CBW 12 bolt, F41, and the white walls? Oh, and don't forget the Yenko Dixco hood tach! You just want to see another Gobi Deuce out there! LOL I'll race you at the Grove....
