Body work? Restorations? Any more specific?

No body work. Yes I do some frame off restorations for my customers. Not my favorite but they are friends so I get talked into it. I prefer doing nitrous installs and tunes. Been doing alot of Vettes and GTOs the past year and half.
Have a few race cars in the process of building for customers right now also.
A lot of tuning @ the track. Hope that is specific enough for you.

I refuse to sign up to some other website just to download pics to bring over here. Too much trouble just for a picture.

Had to bring this back with a few new pics. Here is a few newer pics of the SS396 frame off car in assembly.

Also some of the new RARE find,1 of 20 Sky Blue Talladega's with a 428 CJ and a C6. Right now it's all original except the big mechanical fuel pump and a pair of 3 chambers.

The car will actually be EFI (MegaSquirt) by the time I start using the turbos. Note the injector bungs on the intake manifold (Super Victor EFI).

The turbos are Turbonetics TC-11017 (T3/T4 E-60 Trim Stg 3 550HP).

Stock stroke on the 400 - bored a tiny bit, 408 cid.. I'm looking forward to getting it going again.

That's still in the research phase - in other words, I dunno.

I plan to run a T56 (double overdrive), but obviously it will need plenty of work to stand up to 8-900 hp.

No idea on the rear end yet... but since the turbos won't be going anywhere until the car is running EFI & DIS, there's plenty of time to figure that out..
