Belugawrx Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 (edited) My entry into the CannonBall Run 2015 Ok ..here we go... '62 chev Impala, with a corvette engine,.... sounds simple enough,... Stretched the corvette chassis, a scale 12" and the drive shaft, with 1/4" alum. tube,... Twin turbo setup,... (don't look too close) Wheels are reverse chromes from the 49 merc kit, cut the trunk open to install a nascar gas tank , and easy fill,... Pretty much gutted the interior and installed laptop and GPS,... And that puts an end to a year long project,.. LETS RACE!! Cheers!! Edited December 3, 2015 by Belugawrx
Jeremy Jon Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 That's a heck of a sleeper indeed! Nicely done Bruce, bravo fellow Canuck!!
ZTony8 Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Could be the angle of the photos but I'm not seeing a steering wheel/column.
Belugawrx Posted December 1, 2015 Author Posted December 1, 2015 Thanks for looking in everyone, this was fun! Hey Tony, the steering wheel was the last thing to go in, so your right, I didn't get a pic of it,.... There we go,...

horsepower Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 Thanks for looking in everyone, this was fun! Hey Tony, the steering wheel was the last thing to go in, so your right, I didn't get a pic of it,.... There we go,... it was a removable wheel and one of the pranksters in his group hid it on the driver, Dale Earnhardt Sr. did that to Rusty Wallace once right before a race, but that's OK, the next week Rusty got even, he put a can of tuna fish in oil under the seat on Earnhardt's car, did Dale ever start complaining once the race started and that can of tuna started getting hot.
