Great thread, brilliant mods and a well appreciated enthusiam for the sport and all things Protouring.....
The last photo is extremely relevant to me. I'm always comparing my Porche 996 to my '77 Camaro after mods. The major competition for the Camaro in the UK when it comes to hill climbs and street are cars like you have just posted. LOL!
Most UK American classics are either just that...Classics or dragsters.
This I believe is historically due to 1st and 2nd Gen Camaro's dominating the British Touring car championships (BTCC) from 1967 - 1972 and being effectively banned from competition by the "no engines over 3000cc (183 Ci) rule". Hence many European enthusiast assuming there is no such thing as a great handling American racing car. But we know better.....!
