  • Vehicle Overview

    I purchased this car about 2 years ago, and what began as a rough, worn-out Pontiac has since turned into a full frame-off rebuild. The car is powered by a 6.0-liter LS engine paired with a T56 transmission. The chassis has been heavily modified — the frame is fully boxed, x frame is removed, and reinforced, and the suspension has been completely updated. The rear features a four-link setup with coil overs, while the front uses a Mustang II system with tubular A-arms, rack-and-pinion steering, and coil overs as well. Every system on this car has been rethought or re-engineered — from the custom steering setup to utilize the factory steering column, to the upgraded suspension geometry, to the hand-fabricated details that make it unique. It even uses a 1977 jeep j20 sway bar in the rear and it fits and works amazingly. I completely did the interior, door panels, and seat. The seats are out of a 2009 Chevy truck. I did everything 100% in my garage. No one else worked on this car. My goal was to keep the vintage Pontiac style intact while giving it the drivability, reliability, and performance of a modern muscle car.
