Default Popular Hot Rodding's new Project car...

I am pleased to announce Popular Hot Rodding's new project car...

"Project Olds"



We have already started with some upgrades and the car debuted at the Good Guys show in Joliet last weekend. Please check out the blog....

http://blogs.popularhotrodding.com/6...ass/index.html

The car was well received and did really well on the Autocross despite the lack of power.

Here it is currently...




Watch for the build up to start in PHR early 2010. Let us know what you think and stayed tuned as we continue the progress. I want to thank all my friends who have been so supportive. I also wanted to thank Detroit Speed, Baer Brakes, Rocket Racing wheels, and Nitto tires for their interest in our project. Also a big thanks to Performance Restorations in Mundelein, IL for helping us with the installs. I hope you all like the project.
