I understand. Since I grew up with this car, (I was 3 when it was bought) I think this is where I learned to enjoy the smell of burning rubber, and the sound of squealing tires.

This is going to be a vary fun car to drive. I'm really interested in what the Engines output will be when I have it Dyno'ed.

The big sway bars, urethane bushings, quick steering box, gas shocks, and disc brakes, have made a huge difference in handling. The tires seem to be the big limiting factor at this point.

If it irritates me enough, I'll get some some of these:

These are 17 inch. Some lower profile, and some extra width should really help pick up the slack.

It will fun to see what a,"Old Technology, Pro Touring", car could do.

I'll try and get a Member Folder made for it.

Take care,

Ty
