Looks like there's a seam line stress crack at the front wheel flare.

The super shiney Undercoating... the cheap way out for many "pro" touring cars I see, with an excuse of sound deadening . Wonder how much that all weighs ...
I dont like every car the same, but I have bought cars with spoiler molded into car in rear and it never survives without cracking. All that undercoating and car probably doesnt even run in the rain.... I like the color and its nice that its on the road |

If anyone knows Charlie Hutton you know he will always customize all the cars he does. learned it from Boyd and others. Chip Foose worked for Boyd back in the day. Charlie and Chip are good Friends. Speaks to what Charlie's mind set is.
All the fender spoilers are hand formed metal. no plastic molded to metal on that car. That takes skill and craftsmanship that no one on this chat group has. Frame rails were narrowed using DSE kit and other subtle mods that most of you have not even mentioned. Car was not a numbers car resto anyway. I like the car for the skill it took to make it look like it does. Now would I do that to a generic Firebird,yup. Recognize the car for what it is. Not what it is not.

Excellent Info on that build quality, and that sure Does make a difference ! With all that hand built quality, the undercoating just kills it for me,( IMHO)

"That takes skill and craftsmanship that no one on this chat group has." Assuming things about people you know nothing about......What's the old saying? You might be really surprised to find many very skilled and capable people here. I know I have the skill to do any part of that build. It's actually pretty mild compared to some jobs I've had part in.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I could fabricate a better looking brake line on the rear axle.
