Well picked up a good deal on a Pro line built short block and decided its time to stop toying around. Actually i got tired of my car looking fast.:lol1: So far i have got the old motor out and trying to clear some room out out the shop to put all the new parts. The ole lady is not very happy about the spare bed room.:taunt: Just hope everything falls into to place so i can make mustang week. Here are a few pics of what the car looked like when i got it to where it is today. I will update as i go!!

You are right, the car does look fast. I guess it has something to do with your wheels!! :D :D Good luck with the build.

depends on your definition of grudge. If he wants to make some money on the street or track, the few people that know what the car runs the better. running a heads up class gets expensive real quick, and while bracket racing is fun, its not exciting for everyone.
so building small tire N/T cars an racing for a few hundred (or thousand) bucks here and there gets a little fun. A lot better odds than vegas that's for sure. side bets get interesting too.
