Default Re: 1963 Z11 Impala FINISHED!

Everything except block, cam, carbs, distributor, distributor drive shaft, timing gear set, exhaust manifolds, and some bearings and bolts. And that's just the engine. It was stroked to 427cid.

(it was NOT the "mystery motor" that apppeared at Daytona in Feb. '63). The Z-11 was done under Duntov's watch. The MK-II mystery motor was entirely Dick Keinath's endeavour under wraps of upper management.

I can't wait to see Hank's finished result...

Here's the original car:



Notice how the front fenders are brighter than the rest of the car. They weren't primed. Just paint over shinny aluminum.
