.

Simply stunning!!

A friend of mine stopped over this weekend to show me the progress on the car he has been working on for 15 years! He painted it in his garage and polished it out himself! He did EVERYTHING himself. The interior, paint, roof, engine and wiring. Now he is fine tuning the carburetors. What an awesome job. He has way more patience than me!

That's not a car, it an automotive piece of art. Just magnificent.

I agree. Even if the distributor is at the wrong end of the engine.

Don't knock old Chevys. If I'm not mistaken, that's a big block 409. The stuff that made it into old rock and roll songs.

Would assume and hope not a 348 (if he wants to drag race it).

Thought you might find this of interest. My dad had a 61’ 348.

Nothing wrong with the 348. My dad had a 61’ SS with one.

And.... turns out this one probably is a 348 (dip stick on driver side).

Watching TV in the garage while polishing my car. Couldn’t help but notice the reflection In the HotRod.
