Back in the fall, on my way home from the dragstrip I saw a 76 Chevy Vega for sale with only 40k miles on it.

It was in mint shape.I have been thinking about that car ever since.That thing would fly with an LC2 in it.After the holidays I'm gonna go back to see if it's still there.
 
My choice would be a '55 Chevy Nomad. It would say "GNomad" in ghost lettering along the rockers. No sleeper here. I would graft the hood bulge and add the GN fender emblems.
 
I'm with Otto, the Hurst would be killer with a turbo 6 in it...Oh Yeah!:eek:
 
I will be at the GS NATS with it this year.
The only thing that sucks is ill have to race brackets with it.

Really would love to have the money for a TA aluminum black and heads in one of these for the street!

Gremlin would be a cool project

What does a Gremlin weigh 2500lbs?. They are light and so ugly they're cool. They had a red one on the Speed channel in a Wheelie challenge the croud favorite and this Gremlin was giving them a run for the money, he could get it up on the rear bumper to where you'd see daylight under rear tires. He finally feathered it so that she went about 300ft.

On one of the Pinks all Out shows this one kid had one of the nicest Gremlins I've ever seen. The car was Yellow , tubbed ,rollcage, it was trick, it was a turbocharged SBC . It too was the crowd favorite. They interviewed this kid said he wanted something different then the norm, they asked him about his exhaust he had fabbed his own plumbing and had the exhaust Y into a single tapered chrome pipe sticking out the back about 10"s like a sandrail where the gas cap used to be. It would be awesome to see an LC2 powered Gremlin.

But for real, some day I'll build one of these with a TB LC2:
'57-'58 Vette convertible
'67 Vette convertible
Shelby Cobra (already one of those around here though)
Vega

I am thinking about doing a 98-00 f body for the wife taking the parts that I outgrow from my T not looking to be the fastest around but low 12s high 11s but no cage just a fun driver for her.

Every car or truck I look at I think about what it would be like with the LC2 swap or at the very least what it would do with a turbo on it. I have been told the only cure for this is BOOST so I make sure to make BOOST every 2-4hrs and some days I make BOOST all day long those are the night I sleep the best.
 
89 Ta!

Oh wait....they did that:)

X2 on the conquest and make it near silent.
