Camaros may be the most "prevelant" platform, but there are lots of other cars being done like Mustangs, Cudas, Fairlanes, Chevelles..

Umm, where did you see my car? I had a shoot in the summer with Modified Mustangs and never sent the spec sheet in ( i am perpetually lazy). Unless you know something I don't. -- Joe

I just think that a 69 camaro has sooo many great features, and plus they make so many get parts to make them really cool and handle like a new sports car!

The Ring Brothers have built some really cool mustangs, and Steve Strope built a pretty cool Torino this year.

Aparenlty only 67-9 camaros are allowed to be pro touring cars?
and a couple chevelles I guess and like two mopars...
Where are all the mustangs?! where are all the 32v cobra swapped IRS stangs?

Where are the torinos?!?
I want to see a pro touring Torino cobra. Somebody should make one... that would be different.

Sorry im done complaining.

I posted to your intro asking for some details. Maybe my 69 Torino, FE powered, tremec 5 speed RRS strut kit, watts linked, detroit locker on 17 inch rolling stock just doesn't measure upt as PT in your eyes. Also those new modular 32 valve motors are nice but the weigh a ton and won't really help handling. Sure IRS in a stang is a cool idea but there are many 3 and 4 link set ups made that have a lot less unsprung weight and will produce great handling. Back in 1984 I built a 69 Firebird with Herb adams bars and solid body bushings, global west bushings in my modified arms, 77 riveira read disc barakes to match the front factory discs on 16" Ronal rims and Gatorbacks. I gotta admit I love those first gen F bodies (never loved chevys so I build a Pontiac). Those cars are a great platform and many parts are now available for them so they are even easier to build than ever. My favorite builds on this site right now are the Green demon and the guy building the 67 turbo stang. I just like something different. There are a lot of awsome cars on here. Did you see that Corpala? I saw the 63 Impala at the roadster show and it was one of the best wxecuted cars I've ever seen. I also saw steve's 68 Camaro and that car was also a gem. So look through the posts. I agree sometimes I get tired of reading so much about Camaros but there are a lot of different cars on here.

Check the home page theres a few mustang not as many as f bodies but every things welcome here.The mod motor is a waste of time in a early mustang and ford is replacing it soon that shows how good it is.The irs is more for a smoother ride not handling anymore a straight axle set up right will out handle a irs.

We're lurking...




No really, there are a few Fords and Mopars here, but Ford and Mopar together are still being outgunned 10:1 by the GM guys. Do a search, and you might find some nice rides.

true, but what few there are, have been done right. I didn't go with a mod motor (supercharged, fuel (and methanol) injected 302), but I have the IRS!

The link below will take you to teh feature of Mustang and Fords magazine. I got the cover.

I know exactly what you are talking about & that’s exactly I bought a 1973 Mustang Fastback for my Pro-Touring project.

I have found a few of us Ford guys here & there. They are very helpful when you have questions.

You can also check out www.pro-touring.com there are a few more Mustang, other Fords, Mopars, & even AMCs projects going on over there.

I’ve come across your car on Car domain. That turbo setup looks pretty mean. You should definitely start a build thread on either one of these sites.


Anyway, We are here…..just a few less of us…..

Welcome to the site.
