Re: off it goes

These are 70 Chevelle, went with them because I wanted to lose the lowest factory mounting hole. Just because of my front tires would have been close with a stock replacement....so I actually moved the lowest hole up. If you want a Billet Stock replacement try Eddie Motorsports

Thanks. I was in contact with Joe Rode at EMS back in October, but they only make them for the 73-80 squares. He figures it'll be about 1 1/2 years before an 81-87 version will be available so I'll just have to wait.

Checked out the Porterbilt site. They only have 60-72 models. Very trick cowl mount units but none for square bodies.

Re: off it goes

It really is a treat to see a square taken to this level. I haven't watched a Ridler winner build but can't help but think of it watching this.
