Default Project '66 GEDAGRIP
For a member with so very few posts, I must say it doesn't reflect the inspiration and knowledge I've gathered over the last few years. Here is some history on the car to where it currently sits - literally. Many thanks to Steve - ADRNELIN, who has personally guided and continues to labor with me around this build. Couldn't do it without you brother. Started with a tired but clean turn key (driver) Georgia car. Had an average restoration from a 327 sport coup to an SS about 10 years ago. The objective for the build overall is to mainly cruise and hit the local autocross a few times a year. With all the variations of what a protour car is, well to put it plainly, I want a modern car while doing everything I can to keep it looking like it rolled out of the factory in Atlanta back in '66.

Completed:
Suspension: Speed Tech's complete Track Time Kit with ATS'- Thanks Jay...
Holly LS conversion kit
Brakes: Z06 GS - Thanks Tobin…
Steering: All new (non rack n' pinion)
Wheels: 18x8 front / 19x10 rears Forgeline GX3-R
Drivetrain: LSA + T56
3 inch - stainless Borla exhaust
AAW - classic kit
Dakota Digital
Ididit
Tanks Inc.
Moser 12 bolt / 3:90's
