Vehicle Story

Future Plans

UPDATE 8.18.22 - Holley XMAX ECU, 4.125 Darton sleeved LQ9 block, CNC LS3 HEADS, Whipple 2.9, BTR STG II PDS CAM, 4L80E Swap, CalTrac bars, LS1 rear disc brake swap and E85 fuel SENSOR, should make for a wild ride. TIGER CAGE! It would look SICK with the top down not to mention benefits of having a 4 point harness. Body panel alignment all the way around. PAINT - had a hardtop 68 Camaro in high school I sprayed Guards Red while taking auto body and fender repair vocational training classes. The blue is cool but really like to shoot it RED.
