Heh, that would have been right at home in Ohio/PA about 30 years ago. I still remember looking at hi-lift coils in J.C.Whitney (I think) plotting and planning my own. By the time I had a car and a license Pro Street had arrived...

Cool pics. I love that gray Malibu.

ROTFLMAO! I know. Before I moved a guy I know had just brought his 69 Camaro out of hibernation. He put a Mitchell 540 (I think) in it, a race-prepped TH400, some new ET Streets - all with the mile-high stance and 4-wheel drum brakes!!! We tried to tell him to get it down, get some brakes on it, etc, but he thinks it's great just like it is. He also thinks it's a $100K car.

Everything they thought was great there was 10-20 years behind the times. The original Pro Street is still hot, and most of them have no clue what Pro Touring is about. The guys who built P/T cars get almost no attention because the "mainstream" hotrodders in that valley think they just put some wheels on it. "Whadda ya mean go around corners? Just slow down and hit when the road get straight again."

in my area theres alot of that. lots of cars running around with riveted on snorkel scoops, tires sticking out past wheel wells and poor stances. theres even some old school continuous line paint and murals if you look around at some of the mopar guys.... cars like that make up about 50 percent of our scene in central pa, with the rest being a few guys that are up to date or stock resto type stuff.
