The sister project to Killer is now well under way. Dave Bacher (TZracer) has owned this original numbers matching 454 four speed coupe for some time now. The frame actually rotted out from under the car, and the "bird cage" had also developed a serious case of car cancer.
The car is now sporting a fully welded, gusseted (per Chevy Power Book Standards) powder coated replacement frame, replacement bird cage, full VB&P performance plus suspension, new fuel lines, brakes, etc, with hub bearings up front, and 1/2" wheel studs.......
Over the next couple of months I will be pouring my spare time into hand fitting the doors, front clip, then adding front fender flares, and attempting to perfect the body for a super hot black paint job.
Here is what we have to work with now.
