I'm a couple months from paint and reassembly and would like to end up with a car that looks like that ! 1917 490, 1928 Depot Hack, 1925 Buick roadster, 1978 Vette pace car, 2002 Z06

At least that is what most people that see it think it is. Yes even if it has Chevrolet Bow-Tie emblems. How Sweet the roar of a Chevy four!

Appreciate those that pay enough attention to recognize it is a Chevy. Reward the few that know it is a 490 with a smile and positive comment or three. How Sweet the roar of a Chevy four!
