(it almost looks like they're 7's front and rear with just a staggered tire package).

Thanks in advance.

JD I'm sorry I don't recall the tire size. The wheels where 15" though. I like the look also. You might entertain the idea of a mild PT build. Perhaps upgraded steering, brakes, bushings, springs, etc. Keep the classic look, but up the performance a bit.

Let me know if I can help any.

Of all the people to give me sh!it about that.

Jim is back on the car and actually sent pictures this morning. Nothing crazy, but I'll post them up this evening after work.

Thanks Curtis, Yes, that's what I'm thinking... LS3, Speed Tech torque arm, etc. but keep the look old school. I'd love to have a second car and do do as you are here, but I know I'll never track it. Just hate the 49 year old handling and want to drive it more.

Thanks!

Can't wait to see it!

We have movement.

It's detail work now and we all know those small things aren't exactly small when it comes to the time they take. But details count!!

Got to love a good movement...... er wait! That's not what he said!

I'm wondering if your project thread / name is for all of us?

As in, we're all the Victim(s)?

Looks great Curtis!
