I hope my clone turns out so good. Great job. Mines on hold while my son goes to collage and I have baby sitting duty from 7:30am-4pm every day.
One of these days things will come together.

Decided to go with the dual snorkel look. Made this one. Not perfect but OK for me.



Also made this one for the 66 Biscayne 427/425 4-speed clone:




And this one for my original 1970 L78 Nova SS 4-speed car:




Love the looks of those dual snorkels.

Very interesting! Chevys....
My buddy Barry just picked up this gem...a '68 427 Biscayne...that's me in it.
It's a former drag car, which explains the low mileage, and non-original big block under the hood. But the history is verified, and the codes are correct.
Yes, it's a touch rough, but not for long!

I love it. Always loved the "Plain Jane" cars.

I just recently purchased a 1961 Biscayne with the pancake top. 45,000 original miles with its original 6-banger and a 3 on the tree. I have a 1963 409 dual quad that will go in it along with a super t-10. Oh yes, it is an original black car. If you hadn't noticed, black is my favorite exterior color. Here are a few photos as it is now.

The wing is on. The interior is in. Wet sanding and buffing tomorrow. Hopefully the big car show here at the Owls Head Transportation Museum Sunday. The gentleman in the car is Brian Marshall, my body man, who put the car together.
