Build story

After owning a couple of these I found this car as a rolling g shell and thought I would buy it and save it being that it was in decent shape. Pieced it together with parts I had lying around and stuff from another car i built with a junk body. It's really nothing special but I enjoy it, i think it looks nice and pretty period correct for the era and I have the only one around so that's kinda cool. It's not fast but its definitely quick, like anything it's never done planning on going megasquirt and putting big rods in it and probably a gt35 and shooting to blow up the trans haha.
