You should build the car the way you like. But you asked for an opinion on the video so I'll give one. I'm in agreement with the statements above. I like the color combo but don't care for wheels, interior treatment or the exhaust.

Check out this car for some inspiration.

Ultimately if you buy a car it is yours to do with it what you want... However, MY OPINION is not those words..

Lol thats why I asked guys! Its ok and I look for opinions as long as I dont get (that would look like poo) type comments i dont do well with flaming comments. As I am building this car from the ground up I want it to be something different but tasteful..

Everything about that YouTube video feels like it's a model, not a real car.

Fact remains, though, that there are lots of 66/67 Plymouth B-bodies out there for inspiration, and they are a car with very nice lines. I'm sure as the build progresses you will find the style that suits you and the car the best.

I'd go a different direction than what's in the video, just my . Those "huge hannah"
exhaust tips just dont do it justice. Those rims are a no-go as well.

Good luck with your project, I miss my '66 belvedere everytime I look at this page.

at the risk of lots of critisisim I will tell you about 5 yrs ago I found a listing for replacement 1/4's in J.C. whitney,I got them and my body guy didnt mind them at all. this is no hemi resto but a budget build and I personally think they are fine, they were maybe 12" tall x like 100"long or something like that, no idea if there still listed or not but thats my story.
