Default Project Update
A few may remember my project so just wanted to give a little update. Nearing completion. Has been almost three years. It runs great and everything working. Just need a little finishing touches. 383sbc 300shot NOS have not made it to track yet but will soon. It is totally street legal. Headlights still work had to buy a vacuum pump but it was worth it. Should be pretty cool when finished just need to rob another bank to get the interior done.
