nope, the 85z28 and 90 RSC are already designated as the drag cars of the bunch. i hope to have a very streetable combo together for the iroc. it will make good power (enough to go low 13's or so) but will be able to turn on a dime. that's the idea for that one.

Sounds like my car. I would suspect myself having another 3rdgen to use as a race car next year. Gutted, lots of power and very sleeperish. Much like your white '90 Matt

hehe, minus the gutted part, while mine has little in the engine bay and no hvac system, i still don't consider my car to be gutted as it has full interior, all four seats and a subwoofer.

yea we have the title.... i can take more pics and send em to you..


nothing is wrong with the front axle, the wheel is a 14" berlinetta that i used to have on my white car that went flat and is sitting in the weeds.

if you really want i can leave the t-tops no big deal but the whole reason i bought the car was for the fender and the front bumper.


the berlinetta wheels

no i was prebley going to make it a street strp car or mainly strip just as a toy. if i wanted to make a driver out of it later i guess i could try but it will be used either for parts on my 92 z28 or made a race or a very very hard project

you can have the glass.... the "fun car" aka the one that will see the track more is t-tops so i'd prefer to have plexi just for that fact of weight and i don't want glass exploding over my head lol.

The only thing is i have money invested in the car (original purchase) which im willing to eat but the wheels i bought aside too and would rather keep or sell. If you want i can get rolling stock to put on there but nothing fancy prolly some junk wheels from the junkyard or the tire shop i work next to
