I have built quite a bit of stuff for circle track cars over the last 20 years going back to when I was in High School. Stuff like our own modified chassis, a few cages and some rear suspension components. I have also made a couple custom sheet metal side scoops for a friends 69 mustang fastback and modified his hood for a taller intake. For a few years I was really into choppers and have modified frames, tanks and fenders. I have even built my own custom tank for a chopper that I may never get around to finishing, it has taken so long I don't like the way it looks anymore.
Right now I am applying the pro touring treatment to my 67 Firebird, which was the car I drove in High School. As far as the fabrication I am doing, I will be modifying the ram air hood to clear the intake, add custom side scoops to the rear quarters and it will have a full frame that is channeled 3" in to the body. Custom floors and trunk area, smoothed firewall, custom roll pan for the rear and I will be doing some work to the front valance. The rear suspension is a 3 link of my own design that I have been working on the design for about 8 years off and on since I disassembled my car. The design might not be as good as what I can buy but I really like doing things myself.
