    PM box is full so posting this here: Bob, I see you are in Ohio. Will you be at the Hot Rod power Tour stop in Norwalk, or other tour stops? Would love to see your car in person. It is stunning! Jim

    Bob, great job! One of the finest looking '65 GS's I've ever seen. Course, I'm kinda prejudiced about the post coupes! Would love to have a 4 speed though.
    Enjoy it!:3gears:

    [video=youtube;HOAVRlVmklU]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HOAVRlVmklU&feature=youtu.be[/video]UPDATE 4-16-14
    well drove it about 10 miles and found about 20 things wrong not bad
    worst one is the transmission case has a hairline crack from the accident and it seeping oil
    Clutch needs adjusted
    brake pedal needs adjusted
    thermostat housing small leak
    hood needs adjusted
    speedometer is crazy off and bouncing
    console is rattling
    exhaust hitting something in the rear occasionally
    electric choke i bought is junk

    I said in the Video it was totalled however it never really was totalled as it has a clean Title .It was just never repaired


    It goes straight down the road no smoke .Engine is smooth and rear end is quiet
    I guess when you build one from nothing these thing are to be expected hope to get some ironed out this weekend

    Clanceman427 Hardtops need not apply

    Dont get any on the headlights, it might yellow them :). Always wanted to ask, was that a street racer thing, the headlight coloring?

    Start a poll.
    I vote :TU:
    I like to see "different" and still be tasteful.
    If GM had not been like Bobby we would only have Chevrolet.
