Is this the same car that was on the board about a year ago? I was following that one for a while. Looked like it was done right. (If an LS engine is your thing)
Taken down to bare metal, a bright new coat of color was applied, new suspension parts, drivetrain & all the "little things" that can nickel & dime you until you lose interest in a car & you shelf it or sell it.

Personally, I need to have a Buick lag maker under the hood of my T.R, but this is the next best thing & nobody says you can't put a turbo on that LS motor. You want to talk about cheap, dependable horsepower? It don't get much better that that. So many aftermarket parts out there for the LS motors, that those engines can fall off the stand and land on a pile of parts & make 1000 h.p! Throw a heater/defroster in that thing & go.

GLWS!

Thanks for the compliments! It is very fun to drive! This is the same car that was on here and a couple of other forums. I bought it from the guy who built it and his craftsmanship is top notch. It had a turbo'd 5.3 and automatic in it before this driveline....he said 750hp was more than he wanted so he decided to take on the challenge of a 6 speed G-body.

I live in a congested area and with 6 gears begging for the redline it's just going to get me in trouble. So I'm on the hunt for something else...
