[Full Open Source] Chevrolet Bel Air (1957) {Cult Classics} ( A Class )I have two builds and tunes here.
I took a completely different approach to these builds, inspired by SatNiteEduardo.
They are both good I think, except the second has less grip and requires a more deft hand at the wheel.
Meow be with you.
