Thought I would post up an intro thread.

I have a '72 Pontiac Ventura II completely restomodded and a '64 Nova coupe that is up next. The Nova is going to get the full treatment, aftermarket front clip, four link rear, LS1 and T56. I have the suspension stuff already and I am now looking for an LS1/T56 take out.

Here are a couple pics of the Ventura and Nova:

I do older Harley's too.

I've seen your car around town... what mods have you done to the ventura?

I took out the Chevy 6 cylinder/PG (factory stock) and replaced it with a Chevy 355 and TH350. The engine is fresh with the usual go fast goodies, forged pistons, aluminum heads, good intake, holley and the tranny was gone through and toughened up. I replaced the 3.08:1 open rear with a 3.73:1 posi and generally rebuilt the entire car. It'll run mid twelves @ 110 out at the track. Everything with the exception of the paint and machine work was done by me.

I have plans to replace the 355/TH350 with a carbed 6.0 and 200-4R sometime in the near future. The 6.0 may or may not be stroked (I'll admit it if it is fast)

I go to the Cruz-in at the Publix on 39th (2nd Friday of the month) on occasion and if you PM me to remind me I will definitely go and we can meet up.
