The Rear Sus. is Tubbed, Coil over w/Ladder Bars and 31/18.50's Pro Trac Tires(!!! 30 inches of Rubber !!!)on Welds. Full Roll Cage. The Exhaust is full length Pacesetter Headers with rear exit 3" tube and Flowmasters. Interior is Custom w/ T Bird rear seat and original Stude. rear console.

Very nice!! Gave you 5*! When you get a chance please take a look at my ���69 Pro-Street Camaro. We just finished running in Pinks All Out and now I���m entered in Texaco Car of the Decades. If you like my car please do me the favor of voting for it in the contest. Right now a Smart Car, Pacer & VW Bug are leading? I need all the help I can get! texacocarofthedecades.com
