I know this isn't protouring, but the car was on air and with some serious mods this car could have been. This was my brothers car when he was 18-19 and I was 13-14 at the time. When I have the envision of building a pro touring caddy it's that body style. The car was ahead of its time interms of bagged caddys at the time. (2000-2001 circa) The car was bagged, body dropped 8 inches in the trunk area,4 inches in the trans tunnel,and 2 inches in the floor. It sat on 20 inch mondera davanti's,and had two 1950 buick super grills made in two one. (13 teeth in total)
We pulled up in front of your booth in 2001 at the august west coast nationals and laid the car out and Ill never forget everyones faces. It made the company dually look like it was lifted. The air ride stuff is for a way different purpose though. Air ride is handling and going low, not laying your rockers on the ground and going dragging. The car had terrible handling and rode terrible, but I miss the car because It brought my brother and I together.
