Default My intro...

Hi guys I'm new to the pro touring\g machine world. I am attempting my first build, so I'm sure I will have plenty of questions. My knowledge is novice, but I have a friend assisting me that is VERY knowledgable about cars in general.
My car is a '72 Cutlass S, I am currently building a .030 455 with forged pistons, port matched heads and intake soon to be mated to a 4L80E or 700R4. I wanted to do something a little differnet for the Olds world. I've always liked the Olds and I've actually only seen 2 Pro Touring Cutlass' online 1 was Popular Hot Rodding build and the other a member of an Olds forum I belong to. . Hope I'm not too much with the questions. I'm here to learn, fellowship and hopefully build a nice ride. BTW, if anyone in the Michigan are has 04-06 GTO seats for sale, look me up...lol

Thanks for the welcome guys... I like those and the Chevelle's of the 67-72 era too. I actually read a lot of those threads being they are so similar. Here's a cpl pics of how it looked when I got it almost 1 yr ago and how it looks as of Sunday night. I took the a-arms and spindles off last night. I'll definitely post pics as I go. This is my first project, but hopefully not my last...

Hey Richard! Well now you see the direction my project is going. It seems to have taken on life of its own...lol You already know what I think of your ride. Maybe I'll be worthy of your "Amateur-Touring" tour...LOL
