Actually I kind of like the wheels and the whole look of the car. It could be a killer sleeper with some suspension mods and a LS motor with a nice quiet exhaust. Just a thought....
I do have a pull out 5.3 and the car has pedals..DOH!!.ROWING GEARS dont get me started ...I LIKE THE WAY YOU THINK.

Before I started on my car I loved driving it the way it was and believe me it didn't look anything as nice as that one does. Enjoy it.

Sorry Tom........

But that is kind of the way things go on this site huh?

Seriously, a STOCK 5.3 with decent tires and brakes.......a lot of fun and 20+ mpg too! (T56 units are going pretty cheap these days on E bay too.)

yeah

its not showroom new but its a nice driver. had he pulled the motor and painted the engine compartment also, it would probably look new.only thing he didnt paint white was the inner fenders,firewall and engine side of the core support they are flat black and Ill probably do that at when i yank the 6.

Looks good Tom, just do some simple suspension work, run some wider steel wheels/tires with caps and have some fun.

......voice in the back of Toms mind.....5.3LS......TKO.........disc brakes.........




I am sorry Tom. Sort of. I really dig the car and I know it will be cool no matter what you do to it. But this is afterall a place where more power is a good thing. I just can't help but be a bad influence here.

Looking forward to seeing MUCH more of the new ride Tom

Can we get some interior, engine, chassis shots? I would really like to see how it all looks stock.
