    Future Plans

    "Street" -able track car. Modern coilover suspension along with swapping the straight rear to an independent rear. Bigger brakes and Custom wheels wrapped in some track tires. Replace old, tired, heavy sub frames with newer, stronger tube chasis. Custom interior with old style but modern features such as new ac (vinatge air) and new radio with old look but modern features (retro sound). Might possibly take off front clip (bumper, fenders, hood) and custom build carbon fiber front clip w/ custom hood. Along with carbon fiber trunk and custom spoiler. Plan is to repaint it the original Atlantis Blue but add more large metallic flakes w/ screaming chicken on the hood.(partially exposing the carbon fiber weave on the hood) Custom headlights, front grille, led sidemarker lights, and custom tail lights. And finally flush mounted glass. Possible pontiac 400/455 swap (or maybe a completely different motor all together). Nothin to crazy, looking to get into the 700-850 whp range.
