The Avanti goes under the knife

(1/2) > >>

Geoff:
The Avanti project has begun!

The fist stage was to get the body up and off the original Chassis.
Being that this was a orig Black plate California car it came apart quite quickly with no seized or rusted bolts ;D







Next it was time to remove all the interior and misc parts including the rear window.



LIft off!!!!



Geoff:
Day two..Time to line up the new Art Morrison Chassis


It was now time to cut the floors and trunk out of this pristine car  :o

Then line it up and see how it fits..




Corvette brakes at all four corners...


A test fit with a donor wheel, this is just an 8" the rears will be 12"





More to come!

70's Looker:

be carefull tho...with all this exposure to fiberglass (the manx & the avante) you'll be hard pressed not to be higher than a hippy in a helicopter & scratching like this guy...
