Hello - anyone into Tri-5s?

[Juiced6]

Thanks

I live NW of Chicago and the Roadster Shop is literally an hour or so drive away.
I will try and take time and head over to see some of their stuff first hand.

Also looking at Art Morrison. Rode in a 57 with one of their chassis setups and it was nice but it was a cruiser (350 with auto). Not really a performance car IMO.

Budget? pffffft. We all know better than this

Frame 15k min
Engine 20-30k (probably more)
Trans 5k
2 sets of wheels - one for drag racing approx 2k and some for the road 4-6k
Paint? maybe

Do I want to mess with the interior? Right now no but i have am image in my head of pulling the benches out and using the back seat area for an intercooler and water tank and converting the front bench to buckets but have them 2 tone matched like the bench is now.

Then i see a car like that Doug Cooper 55 that is all stock appearing and drool and that makes me not want to cut the car up at all except for the mini tubs.

This car is not perfect - it did have some body damage on it that was repaired. So I don't need this thing to look like a show car but i do want it to be nice
