I started this GT350 clone project around a year ago. The car started its life as a 289 2V auto car, with discs brakes. It now has a built 351W, toploader 4 speed. I picked it up from a body shop, who took a California coupe and grafted a fastback top on from a rusted out midwest 1966.

I put the interior together (could post pics if there is any interest), and wrestled with the motor for a while. I ended up rebuilding it and it now runs really nice. It has a lot of cam, but it really gets up and goes.

Now that I had the interior (less headliner) completed and it was running the way I wanted, it was time to move on to body and paint. It has been at the shop for a week and so far I am real happy with the guy doing the work. He is taking his time and doing it right. He is uncovering sins of the past and making it right.

Here are some pics before it goes off for paint:

 

looks really nice, id like to see some progress pics for the body work being done though. whats the paint scheme going to be?

 

interior before paint?

 

Looking good! What type of suspension are you running?

 

I have a few weeks to think about paint color, but I think I will be going wimbledon white / guardsman blue stripes. Yea, I did some things backwards on the car, but the inside had quite a lot of work to do and I didn't want to mess up the paint taking the shelf in and out. Suspension has lowered A arms, 1 inch sway, 1 inch lowering blocks in back.

Interior coming together, fabricated shelf, modified rollbar to allow for shoulder straps and removable cross brace.

 

Are your drip rails shaved off? Are you still going to sell it?

 

Looks nice, just mask the hell out of the dash. our 64 is wimbldn but wife wants green

 

That shift **** looks like the one I have in my 67. Yours is the first one I've seen besides mine.

 

The rails are not shaved, it is bone stock and finding the weatherstripping trim pieces were quite a challenge. The T handle shifter is also bone stock.
