I bet you can't wait to get it home and sit in the driver seat and make rum rum noises.

Anyone who says they don't do that is full of Shiat:_paranoid

Nice job Phil and crew!


My bet is - when this bad boy gets finished and is sitting somewhere - it draws three times the crowd Danica gets. :woot:

GW I'll keep that in mind for autocross events;)

It's got a better back end than Danica, hers is kinda Boney:cool:

Rob I have dibs on the temp rolling stock.

You know you'll get to burn whatever rubber is left off those GS wheels.

Can we get some hash marks on the front fender to continue the LT4 Grand Sport theme? :unibrow:

Jim you've stepped over the line. Stuff like that should only be on txs to Brett and left in Vegas.:rofl:

Sometimes you just have to compromise and go the cheap route.

Any LS would want to be in a Torino; it's all part of the FE envy.:P

You're on to something! I think the back glass is large enough to be able to drop the twin LS straight down the hatch! Then it would be mid engined....
and kinda sorta like a "hemi under glass".... :D

How about a Cammer under the glass of a Mercury Clone Spoiler40 ?:unibrow:

Like the Mach40 only a little bigger.
