This I gotta see.

Also, unrelated note, stop saying you have a SS car. You have a former SS car. It's cool and probably still has most if not all SS parts it needed to be legal minus the power-train combo, don't get me wrong, but you you saying you have a SS car is like saying my RX7 is a rotary car. Sure, the car had a rotary in it at one time, but it's a long way from that anymore.

They never rolled off the GM assembly line, my Firebird did and further was raced as a stocker from birth.

And my RX7 left the assembly line with a rotary. It's not a rotary car anymore.

I'm pretty sure 100% of CR would agree that there is more to a SS car than having big tires and a full interior lol. If it doesn't have a SS engine combo, it's not a SS car. It was, and that's great. But at this moment in time, my '93 Ford Festiva is more of a stocker than your firebird lol.

You have a big tire bracket car, and that's cool. It could even run SS again. Not a SS car now though.

Your opinion, mine is all that counts but every class racer that knows of the car and it’s former campaign refers to it as a super stocker and not just any super stocker but the best of its kind as well the best 4th gen Fbody Super Stocker to come out of MPR and the lightest.
