hey guys/gals
im new here, been lurking for a while and finally joined, wanted to introduce myself My names Phil, and i have usually hang around on TGO, so i know a handful of you guys form there. Love my 3rd gens. So, i have an 86 trans am, its pretty much a protouring car at this point, probably going to stay that way and eventually begin my racecar build on my recently acquired 92 firebird. 86 (IMG:http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s209/Phil_9111/PIC00018-2.jpg) 92, 3.1 auto, slooooooooow (IMG:http://i153.photobucket.com/albums/s209/Phil_9111/PIC00025-4.jpg) the 92 will be the racecar in the future, im just starting my plans for it and still have a lot of things to figure out with the direction i want to take it. Most of these plans require piles money, and thats a little tight right now since im looking to buy a house soon. So far i've only dealt with the issue of the horrible steel wheels that came with it, picked up a set of black crosslaces which will go on this spring once refinish them a bit. so thats the basics, hopefully i can learn a lot from you guys -Phil |

Both of those cars look too nice to gut.
Rather than do a build I'd suggest looking for something that's already been converted to a track car. Lots of them around going for next to nothing these days. You never get your money back so let someone else take the hit. People lean on you and put dents in your race car so it's best to have something that's just a mule and not too pretty. Those are nice looking cars you have there - hate to them get banged up for nothing. |
