THIS HAS BEEN A PROJECT OF MINE SINCE I WAS ABOUT FIFTEEN AND HAS MEANT A LOT TO ME OVER THE YEARS OF RACING AND CRUISING. THIS CAR MEANS A LOT MORE TO ME NOW AND IT GETS A LOT OF MY TIME AND MONEY SPENT ON IT. OVER THE YEARS IT HAS WENT THROUGH MANY DIFFERENT CHANGES, WHEN I GOT THE CAR IT WAS PRETTY NICE BUT JUST WASNT GOOD ENOUGH. ANYBODY THATS BEEN AROUND HOTRODS KNOWS THAT IT IS A NEVER ENDING PROCESS, AND WILL UNDERSTAND THIS STORY. THE CAR WAS A DESCENT RUNNING AND LOOKING CAR WITH 350 WITH A TH/350 TRANNING SO I PUT A SET OF WELD WHEELS ON IT AND A FEW ACCESSORIES AND CALLED IT GOOD FOR THE TIME BEING. OVER MY HIGH SCHOOL YEARS IT RECIEVED 406 AND A 3000 CONVERTER AND A FEW MORE ACCESSORIES.
AFTER I GRADUATED I GOT A SET OF M/T DRAG RADIALS AND A N/X GEMINI TWIN KIT AND MADE A FEW PASSES AT THE LOCAL DRAGSTRIP OVER ABOUT THREE SEASONS. I NEVER HAD THE CAR ON A DYNO SO I DONT KNOW WHAT KIND OF POWER IT MADE BUT IT RAN A BEST OF 10.8@118MPH.
NOW I HAVE DECIDED TO CHANGE A FEW THINGS FOR THE BETTER. I SOLD MY OLD MOTOR TO ONE OF MY BUDDIES AND BOUGHT A BOLT ON FRONT CLIP TO ELIMINATE ALL DRIVING AND BRAKING PROBLEMS WITH THE STOCK JUNK. I ALSO DECIDED TO TRY FUEL INJECTION, BUT NOT REALLY FOR THE BETTER JUST FOR SOMETHING DIFFERENT. I BOUGHT A USED 6.0L GEN 3 SMALL BLOCK AND PUT A THUNDER RACING T-REX CAM IN IT AND SOME OTHER BOLT ON PARTS AND I HOPING WHEN I GET IT DONE I HOPE IT RUNS LIKE IT DID BEFORE. THERE ARE ALSO A FEW PICTURES THAT I SKETCHED WHILE I WAS AT WORK, THEY ARE OF MY CAR AND A FEW OTHER FRIENDS CARS.
THIS IS JUST THE START OF MY PROJECT PICTURES AND STORY. I WILL TRY TO UPDATE IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
