As many of you know I started a 1:8 Monogram '65 Vette a while back. I started by modifying the body so that it is now a '63 Split Window Coupe, stripped it of bumper mounts, door handles and window trim and then oppened the doors and cut off the front end to tilt it.


Next I built the basics of a motor and called it "WICKED". I won't repost the original engine pics as this is where things changed.
Also as many of you know, I had a heart attack and a triple bypass just over a month ago. While I was still in the hospital my other half brought in a smoke and soot stained survivor of our house fire and my mind started reeling with ideas. It was the body, doors, hood and front end of my '63 Vette.
This is to be the heart of the redesigned car, "CARDIAC ARREST". Still a ton of work to do, it is missing the turbo chargers, nitrous system, plumbing
, wiring and a hand full of other small parts but I wanted to post pics of the basic engine as at this point I need to tear it down to finish and fine tune everything that I have in order to go much further with it.
I hope you enjoy!
