Now you see it....now you don't

My car is a factory a/c equipped car. I am NOT a fan of that feature in classic cars. Problem solved.

Nice job!
Have you considered the cowl induction such as the 68? GS used?
And I have to ask.... have you made up your damn mind whether it's going to be 455 or Nailhead powered? :laughing7:

Yes, that's why I made the panels removable. I haven't made up my mind on which engine to use yet. There are pluses to both options. It would be an easy decision if I didn't have both options sitting in my garage.

I am absolutely using a Nailhead drivetrain in this car. I'm not into racing much anymore and I've got the stuff to make a stout 401 and it will be stunning under the hood.
