I must be slow on the uptake, because I cannot figure out ho to post pics…do they have to be a small file? Like less than 1mb?
Please do not mind me, just trying to figure out how insert or attache pics…

But thanks for all the welcome replies!

They are Holley. I am actually considering turquoise as a color option

4 door for sure wasn’t my first pick. But I honestly don’t mind it at all. To me they are a little more unique because everyone goes for the 2 door. Hopefully the build will turn into something I can take to car shows and maybe even burn a little rubber at the drag strip. :mrgreen:

I've watched some Youtubes of drag racing in Australia, and it seems the preferred cars are 4 doors. 8)

Here's color chart for '67, if you're interested down the road. Ditzler 12876 looks pretty cool.
