My first car was a father-son project, a 1966 Chevelle convertible. We did a body off "resto" on it. Dropped an LS-6 454 and a M-20 4-speed in it. It was red with a red and white custom interior. After it wiped a cam we put a roller in it, ran 12.03s quite often. I got two or three 12.01s on afternoon, kept trying for a 11.99 but just couldn't get it.

Sold it to buy a 1961 Impala 2dht, dropped a roller cammed, bored & stroked (482) 409 with 2-4s in it. Nice and fast, but I just couldn't keep the '09 together. I sold it to start my current project... 13 years ago!
