2004 GTO just picked up from JRC last month. Original plan was stock, most likely super stock now in GT/HA, and some NMCA heads up stuff.

When can we expect to see the Vette and what Super Stock class will it run?

The 64 and 65 Steve Bagwell cars were my favorites. But, I like anything sittin in the lanes of stock and Super/Stock !

Good luck everyone!

That is very sweet, Carl! I love dinosaurs. Especially in red.

I am putting this '77 Olds Starfire GT together for stock. Right now the drive train is out and the interior is completely stripped, only the steering column/wheel is left. Next up is subframe connectors and some floor repair. Paint / body work will be next winter. Hoping to have it running this year for some check out passes. Looking at V/SA to get my feet wet with a Buick 231 V-6 for power.

Frank, I'm right in the thick of the "Best Engineered" portion of this build. The stuff where folks go how did you do that? or Why did you do that? or what does that do? LOL Actually, I'm repairing all the little stress cracks that seem to be unending. But it's on the rotissorie, so now is the time to do it and do it right. Once I get paint on it and back on the frame, I think it will move along swiftly. The tough stuff has been long done, and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. Hopefully it will be done early enough to get some real good seat time this fall. I'm just hard headed and must do all of the build myself.....design, engineering, fabrication, body, paint, plumbing, wiring, etc etc. That's just how I believe hot rods should be done. Anyway, I believe it fits in "L" naturally, but who cares....as long as there are no DPs and CJs untill the eliminator.
