Some pics of my Running on Empty 57 Chev I built about 6 years ago, It was built from an old build of the old MPC flip front 57, I had to sand all the side trim off and then do a bit of filling. The motor is from the RM Chevelle. This one is a bit rough as it was a rebuild, may do another one one day.

Looks tough and not something I'd like to see in a dark alley.

Mate of mine from NSW owned that car. It was really only a tunnel rammed big block. They shoved the blower on for the film and also staved the right hand 1/4 panel in.
