Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Wicked Chevelle man.. WOW!
I have to agree, all it needs IMO would be wheels. Rush forth Saltshaker comes to mind. Brushed face or maybe some of the powder coated Billet Specialties. I'm thinking brushed.. Posted via Mobile Device

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Thanks Mario hated those wheels from the get go. He never wanted them but that's what the owner wanted so that's the shoes she got. I plan to change them just not now

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Killer Chevelle!
I know a guy that had Billet Specialties make their "Patriot" wheels without the bolts/rivets. They look like a totally different wheel. And one of a kind. They would be sweet on that car.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Nice. I like C10's, but my heart belongs to Chevelles. I had a '69 SS and '70 SS. Sold those. Now looking for a '64-'65. Good luck with it.

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
I promise I will change the wheels. This car has 18000 miles on it since completed which I think is a saying a lot about the kind of car Mario and his build what I like about it is I can drive it with my family in it and show it. Well just wanted to share it with the board family

My first thought was "Great Family Car" that is bad ass. Enjoy it. Alot of times is cheaper to buy a finished vehicle specially when you get into the high end builts. Of course not a back yard "restored" project but something like this..I like it alot!!!

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Al I could not agree more. This was the deal of the century so I bought it. I really was not looking for another car. As far as Tootsie goes I am working on her this weekend. Not touching the car until the truck is done

Re: Tootsie build for my mother with cancer
Don't wanna dilute or side-track the Tootsie build but a few pics of the motor and some details would be killer! Sweet Chevelle man!!

Wow, nice car. I'm sure the guy that sold it is sick he had to sell it.
