JRANGER · 10-05-2012, 12:46 PM

this looks like its gonna be a cool build

y5mgisi · 10-06-2012, 11:14 PM

This is going to be so bad ass!

mud.man.rj · 10-06-2012, 11:31 PM

Very cool to see you save the SS and actually also save the GTO at the same time and build a real car between the 2 of them, with you all the way.

I appreciate that, that was kinda my thoughts at the same time, I am actually at the farm today staring at the two of them. I think I have figured out what I want to do. And how to do it. got some saved up now to b uy the panels for the car. So if I can get parts ordered soon, I will get the two of them mated first, then worry about the driveline. baby steps I guess. even though I wish I had to money to order everything all at once and just do it, but that is never the case. Oh well.

stepside83 · 10-07-2012, 07:28 PM

i say go for it, put the 5.3 in it turbo it, and paint it blue, this will be a cool build, and i saw that wcc show that was a lot of work but cool when done

To finish a project successfully, all you need is time, money, and talent. It's hard to get all three of those guys in the same room. Keep after it.

VA72C10 · 10-14-2012, 12:56 AM

Looking forward to this one!!!

Where can I find these three gents that you are talking about, usually only the last guy shows up, but sometimes the secong gent does. That first one, well he is totally a magician in my eyes, I always seem him but never actually meet him.

And thanks.

I saw that build too and thought it was an interesting idea. Tons of work but really cool.

Good luck with the project.

cubber · 01-26-2013, 01:05 PM

I think you have a great idea!! What could be better than a car with modern technology and convenience, and classic styling?!?

mcbassin · 01-26-2013, 01:29 PM

What's up Nuke? Figured you would have started on this by now in the new garage?

No updates as of now, I have been ordering some parts for it finally, slowly. Me and the wife have talked and hopefully by fall we have all the metal needed for the operation and then I will start on it this fall. So it will be a bit yet. Sorry guys
