    We have several members here sporting cool handles like Cuda and 502 and a few others.
    So let's see them.
    My current project for my wife is a 66 Oldsmobile Jetstar 88.

    A 455 is in the works for this ride.
    The front suspension and steering linkage has all been replaced this past summer along with a disc brake conversion.

    Let's see your ride.
     
    Here’s one for Gun Nut. 68 RR 383, big Holley, direct connection intake, crane cam headers, 4 speed. This was my daily driver in the early 80s. My girlfriend, now my wife took this pic in early 84. A week before I left for the Navy, in April of 84, my buddies took me out, and I am living proof that big blocks and beer is never a good combination. I put it in the woods at about 60mph and destroyed it. I think the cop felt bad for me, and since I was going in the service, he let me slide without writing me up.

    ^^ back when I had my Road Runner, a good friend had a true 69 Z/28. That car was really cool and pretty fast. That little 302 was surprisingly snappy, and when you gear up that 12 bolt with a close ratio 4 speed, it was pretty fast. Great memories.
    A friend to this day bought a red/black '69 Z/28 in '75 when we were in high school. I rode in that car many times and those little DZ 302's had a lot more stock power than their rated 290hp. The 68-69 Camaro's running in the Trans Am series, then my friends car, then Big Red at the Silver State Classic hooked me on the 1st Gen Camaro.

    Both of these are long gone . I was just a wrench on the Modified. Troyer's shop built it we just finished it. that's me with the lug gun. The Corvette I built back in the late '70's ,and raced it in the eighty's. I was a 50/50 partner with the driver he did the body work and I did the rest. Won a shit ton of races with that car. It was illegal as hell but we never got caught. Somebody races it in Vintage now on the West Coast at least as last I know.
