Sweet rides! There was a guy at the track yesterday in a 57 Nomad that would pull the wheels a good 3 ft and carry them at least 60'. Kept thinking damn thats gotta be scary. NOT seeing the track and thats got to be real hard on front suspension over the years.

Here's the engine after finishing the repaint:


Here's the Brakes ... All 98 F-body:



Here's the interior ... Stock appearance:


Here's the undercarriage ... Gotta love polished stainless steel


For those asking about whether it was for sale ... $50K and $60K offers have been turned down ... but as with all things in life everything has a price.

That car looks freakin AWSOME. My dad would make a mess of himself over that one. He had a '66 Chevelle back in the day, his was an SS 396 though.

Is that Flowmaster exhaust under there.

























HAHAHA ... couldn't resist.

Stock color was not bad especially considering the age fo the paint BUT it was far from ok and black just screams sexy!
