'65 Waylo, with a twist...

[unforgiven2008]

I have been on a builder's block and have done nothing in a long time, so I thought I would start with a Lil simple build to kinda get back into things again, started last night, smoothing the body, and losing all the badges, lowered to a point I cant go no more, I will build a revell parts pack 421 for it, and shoot for a two tone paint job......







OK guys, as I couldn't use the kits 421 in the build, i decided to use a Revell 427 parts pak engine, why?, what would prompt me to use a a Ford in a perfectly good Pontiac, because I can, and I did.
Well the real reason was I slammed this puppy to hard to the ground, and wanted a blown 421, but things didn't work out, I didn't do the math right, if your gonna go blown then you have to get the exhaust out, and the 421 heads just didn't have enough beef on them to do it, so I went this route, I don't have a picture of the headers, as of yet, on this beast, but here is a look at it now.....



And just in case any one was wondering, the 427 Revell parts pak engine in itself really sux, guess that why I buy them just to steal the blowers set up's...

A Ford motor in a Pontiac? Don't do it, cap'n!!!!! . Seriously, interesting idea, for sure! Love the way it sits.

OK, now that I have most if not all the engine complete, and man I tell you, the 427 is a dog of a parts pak, to put together, I thought I would shoot a few shots, of how she would look under the hood?, surely I jest, I still have to scratch a hood scoop, to keep it from swallowing bugs, but you all get the idea...
