Coming Soon - Chevy theme

[TheGreatSatan]

My Father in law is a huge fan of chevy who worked at a chevy dealership for over 20 years. Right now they have 500MHz beast running Win98, so I think they need an upgrade. The computer I'm gonna build will be chevy themed. Check out my concept pics and tell me what you think.

Ooops! I didn't know that Hemi is a dodge thing!

Looks like it would be a great case theme. Since he worked at a dealership for over 20 years, maybe look for some vintage design accents that are distinct to Chevy besides the bowtie. I bet if we put our heads together we can probably come up with a few things.
A couple of examples..

The SS badge is pretty much a Chevy only emblem.

Or the BelAir Hood ornaments.

And Dont forget good old Chevy Rally Wheels!!

Hope this helps and looking forward to seeing your progress!!

EDIT: This is a pretty nice emblem for Chevy..

Hey a chevy theme! HECK YES! Although you wont get any money out of me for funding I will defiantly support you emotionally 100%! lol Chevy's rule! oh funny story while were on the topic of chevy's. I saw a corvette the other day... no biggie right? There everywhere now-a-days! But this one was different... it was a new'r model pulling two dirt bikes on a trailer. And my younger brother who was in the car with me looks at me and says, "who would put a hitch on the back of one of those pos's?" I didnt know what to say! All I could think was... sob, he's right. ^_^

I'm sure I can pick something up on ebay to with the case. Mabe a hood ornament on top or the emblem on the side, or both!

[TheGreatSatan]

Here's more. I want to get the actual logos off ebay probably to match these. And I do like the 69 Chevy Camaro SS 427 the best.

If it's within your skills, having some sort of classic intake reproduced would add a great feel to the front of the case.

Like having the SS 427 and have the sides be mini versions of the grill pattern.

[TheGreatSatan]

I do want to make the front that same type of front of the car with the "SS", but I'm still working on how. Also...

I've done some searches on the 1969 Camaro 427. Some have that hockey stick striping along the side and not the stripes on the hood. Is there another way to refer to the 69 camaro when speaking specifically about the one with the stripes on the hood?

And WTF is Yenko?

[Airbozo]

I know that there were SS and RS models (supersport, rallysport). That may make a difference.

EDIT: I also think it _may_ have something to do with the engine size too (327, 396, 427).

Here's the case I may use.
