Build an early Pontiac so I can build your engine. My 1962 Grand Prix is coming along nicely. www.PontiacEngines.com

How cool would it be to build a clone of the Ray Allen / Truppi-Kling / Briggs Chevrolet '70 Chevelle SS LS6 Convertible for A or B/SA? OMG!

Buying one turn key ready to race seems to be the best way.
I got lucky and it worked for me

There was a Cadillac turn key Super Stocker ( GT car ) with trailer for sale at the August 2019 Bowling Green , KY division race. I think it was $ 25K with spare parts for everything.
Early 1990's Caddy I believe with a 425 Caddy engine |

Re: If you were a newbie to the Stock eliminator...
That would be Ken Sharp selling his Eldorado, with all the spares he had that would be a good buy. You can go thru some of Warren’s D3 videos and see it run. I’d review the D3 events at Bowling Green and Norwalk, seem to remember Unk talking about the car.

With your daughter being 13, you should check with your local NHRA track about NHRA Jr Street. It allows 13-16 to race full size street cars against other kids. My son just finished his last year of eligibility and will join me in Sportsman next season and hopefully we will have a stocker together in the next couple of years.

Re: If you were a newbie to the Stock eliminator...
All good stuff Chris. You seem to know what you want and know how to get to it. I am also looking at a 5th gen Camaro, but for SS. A Stick car would be fun, but as you noted more work and less consistent. You know what you want. Just go for it and good luck!
