Placed the rear bumper in place to see if I like it. Plan is to make one with fiberglass and probably have it wrapped in chrome-ish material...

A custom rollpan and a thin bumper might match the look of the front better. I'm really enjoying following your build BTW. 
Funny you should mention that... after seeing the rear bumper in place and how outrageous it is, I was thinking I'll need to make the previously thought simple front bumper a bit more ridiculous.A custom rollpan and a thin bumper might match the look of the front better.

The rear bumper looks great and balances the fins perfectly.

I dare say GM repops will be easier to find, an since you are working with a corvette, no harm, no foul.

This is definitely one of my favorite threads to follow. Always wish it went faster but in reality you're doing an amazing amount of work in the time it has taken.
Thanks for sharing it with us.

I agree...really enjoy seeing the progress on this car. I was so inspired I had to go out and buy a 1959 Dodge Coronet....didn't need another project but those pictures of wetskier2000's car were so cool I could not help myself....I knew I needed one also!!!!

I looked that one over good too. Immediately thought of this thread and his original plan. Definitely like the new idea better!
