a look at my project in the garage
« on: February 06, 2011, 05:29:52 pm »
well im not gona lie m first love is not the square bodys but a second so dont worry lol. my irs car was a 86 trans am lg4 700r4 2.73open. i drove the car mostly through high school till the motor went and then i rebuilt the 305 and ran it off and on for a couple years and eventualy gutted the car of all the interior and motor/trans to redo it but at the time i was making minimum wage and couldnt afford to do but so much. alright fast forward a few years till now im 23 married have a house a toddler and a family dog lol.  i can now afford to start the build on the car just time is my limiting factor. the car is getting a lm7 (5.3) with a gm hottcam th350 trans with redneck performance 3500 stall and a posi 3.73 rear. its also getting a drop with sportlines and all new black interior with a 98+trans am dash and console. i dont plan on keeping the th350 long since this will not be a pure race car i plan to be abe to drive it to the beach and on long trips to shows and car meets but i had this left over from the 82 trans am i parted and sold. anyway enough talk but here are some pics.

All normal practicality and rational money handling goes out of the window when it comes to my truck.
