Well the project is at an end...

For now

I started the thread here about how the car was when I purchased it and all the work it needed. Well needless to say it is complete and here is how it looks today...

Thanks for all the kind words! Those are the 17x9.5" wheels with the 275/40-17 tires. I originally bought the wheels for my S/C Camaro but when I picked up a red Formula it was a no brainer to put on there. It really looks better in person, I lowered the res of the pics to be dialup friendly. As far as showing it, the car will be at Carlisle GM Nats June 23rd-25th stop by and say Hi if your there!

That's in the works, just a little bit though it is a daily driver. I may tinker with the motor a bit later. Coming soon is the full suspension and 3.27 9 bolt from the camaro. Then subframes.
