I like 60s cars. I don't want it to ride or stop like one but that RS chassis is pretty well hidden so it will do it's job somewhat unnoticed. I want mine to look like a 60s car and still have the soul of hp past. Nothing wrong with building a car just because of the body lines if that is what you want it just isn't my goal. I started my build based on the motor and the car. That's jsut what I like.  |
Best quote in this thread! Now that I've driven it on the street I'm so glad I stayed true and stroked the 400 in my Firebird to 440! It may be "old school" but it's cool as hell, makes more power and torque than I'll ever "need" and I can still work on it myself. Heart and soul remains... no "cookie cutter" transplants here either. Congrats!
