Been lurking for a few weeks, and the grey box at the top of the screen has finally gotten to me.
This is my '87 Grand National. It's a low-mileage (40K) car with a nearly stock drivetrain (chip, fuel pump) and a mildly modified front suspension (Pole Position adjustable A-arms and tall ball joints from Marcus). Some will recognize the background For those that don't, it's the overlook right in the middle of the Tail of The Dragon.

The next is my autocross car, a 1970 Datsun 240Z that I pulled out of a barn three years ago. It's been "freshened" with a short-stroke 2.7L inline six and triple Mikunis. It puts 175hp to the ground. Not much on the surface, but in a car that weighs 2200lbs with me in it, that makes for a lot of fun.

And finally, the new project. A 1985 Pontiac Grand Prix. Decided the GN was too valuable to keep wrenching on, so I'm turning my attentions to this boat. It's a Brougham model, 305 4bbl. Lots of rust, and most of the running gear was shot. So far it's gotten a near rear suspension, a 200-R4 to replace the TH350C, and there's a nice 350 on a stand in my garage undergoing final assembly.

There are set of UBMachine upper arms and some Hoosier Autocross slicks waiting in the basement for it.
