Oh yeah....nice rides. Love the Olds, but I'm biased because I grew up having to listen to my dad's 442 stories.

=============================

You might check out this sight when you hit town. They put on regular shows and restaurant meeting. There is usually something most weekends if it's pretty.

You can scroll back several months on the calendar and see the types of things they do. They didn't have much in January yet, but many times the new month of the new year is a few days to get published.

Anyway hope this helps.

You might also check Texas Motor Speedway, and see if they have some NASCAR drives you can do, or some SCCA stuff. Sniff around a bit, people here LOVE their cars!

Great rides guys! Going along with what Dane said, Pro-touring or Resto-Mod, doesn't really matter, just enjoy your ride. I've seen some other sites where guys are dam near fighting over the definition of pro-touring. IMO, that's getting a little rediculous. Our site here, in the short time I've been on here, I don't remember a urinating contest like other places. To me, that's because of the class of the members and Scott's hard work on here.

Hats off to you for doing something other than a Ford of a Chevy.

I do have a 69 Camaro, but I also have a '65 Buick Riviera. ;-)

It's fun to see some nice, "Other", Muscle cars.

Thanks,

Ty

BTW: I'm in Frisco, Texas

Thanks Ty Where's your pics? I dig 69 Camaros and really dig 65 Rivi's 63-65s where one of the best body styles ever made IMO

Nice grabber, I love a well built Maverick. Loving the 'bird, too..

Ours is, I guess you would say race-touring..



And I'm currently rocking the totally un-pro-touring truck as my daily..in the rain

Go check out some of the cars at Xtreme HorsePower in North richland hills. They always had some nice rides in there.

From the exterior everything appears stock (until I decide on rims and brakes) but only thing original is the body and frame.

So give us the low down on the red 'vette. What's the story behind it and what have you done to it? Any more pictures? Nice looking car!
