1965 Plymouth Blown Alcohol Hemi Belvedere Repaint

[koister]

Here are some pics of my 65. It has gone 4.80s in the 1/8 and low 7s in the 1/4. Has a lot more in it. Enjoy the pics.
the first pic is of the car when it was white. Here are pics on what I have done so far.
The second pic is of the glass front end that I layed up and painted. The grill headlights marker lights, emblem, Plymouth letters are all airbrushed, by me of course. I will post some more updates I have to get them off of my phone.

Like ski said, Beautiful car. Why the color change? I like both colors but I like the white a little better.

I agree. I just decided to try black. There is one kink though. There is Blue Ice Pearl over the black. So when bright light hits the paint it goes to a deep blue pearl. Check out the attached photo. I can always go back to the white pearl if I don't like it black/blue

Here is another video. 2 years ago I got invited to go to wildhorse pass dragstrip and test and tune with the pro's. It was me and John Force in the staging lanes. He ran right before me. It was the first pass on his new car. It took the crew 40 minutes to adjust his harness to his liking.

Here is an in car video. I was going to race the Hellion Truck (Blown Alky BBC). The truck caught on fire so they gave me a solo pass. Watch the tach. as soon as I let go of the transbrake it jumps to 7000 and stays there even after I shift. Turns out I had a broken pump in the powerglide and had dropped a cylinder. But its kind of a cool video. Also about half track the car got goofy and I pedal it and then shut down early. Fun car to drive if they prep the track.

I guess I should say the car has a 572 CI aluminum hemi, raised cam, .200 spread lifter bores, 65mm camshaft. 11.0 static compression, Diamond Pistons, LSM Camshaft 114 CL 304/308 .700 lift, Bill Miller Aluminum Rods, Stage V Big Valve Heads 2.42" intake valves, 2.00 exhaust valves. Keith Black billet crankshaft, Littlefield 12-71 Hi Helix Blower. Need a bigger blower. 2 speed glide, Neal Chance billet blower converter, and Dana 60 with 4.10:1. Strange shocks on all four corners with promod valving.

You have some cool stuff. I will be by to pick up that 65. LOL. I will get some build photos posted. I have a lot of them including the whole process of making a mold off of an old beat up steel front end and then laying up the fiberglass front end painting and airbrushing it. I will dig up the pics.

That's sweet! I was looking for a really dark blue when I had a 66 sport fury. I'll have to keep that in mind for whenever I get the chance to redo my 65 Coronet. But I leaning towards a dark green right now.
