Question regarding building a Pro Touring car

[tjtucker]

Hi All

I have a quick question. Lets say a guy went a couple of weeks ago and was able to get a ride in the DSE 63 Chevy II and determined this is good example of the type of car he wanted. (always and been a huge fan of the little Chevy).

So here is the question if I was looking for a car to build would I be better off buying a roller which has been tubbed like a pro street or strip car; or would I be better off buying a non-tubbed car and having it mini-tubbed?

My build would be a Chevy II with the DSE front sub frame with everything offered on the sub-frame including the brakes and the full rear Quadalike from DSE.
I want to do a newer LS3 (hot cam) with the new GM auto out of the 2010 SS and I would set up the interior just like the DSE car with full or tiger cage and cloth Recardo seats.
