At first I wanted to do a GL Ghia. It morphed into what I now call a "coach-built".
I liked what John Kelly was doing with his fender flares so I copied his. I reshaped some 67 Camaro QP's. (wait for the pics before you call me a crackhead). This is a "use up all the leftover crap in your garage" project.


I also changed the front to a 356A see

After I made large flares for the front, I didnt like how the Ghias front end tucks under at the nose. That was a major reason why I changed to the 356 front. Another reason was that I used to have a 356 kit car and I thought that I could make it flow with the Ghia body. This way I can get my 2 favorite cars mixed into one. My frontend is 'glass so it wasnt that hard. I took a mold off of a friends 356 kit that I was fixing.
I'll post some pics next week.
