Well, I know the Pro-Touring scene in Colorado isn't very big but I have to say I hope it gets there someday. Just wanted to say hi and say that I can't stop checking this forum out at least twice a day. I am working on a 1963 Chevy II SS. Here is what I have: 355 SBC, TH350, 10bolt with 4.11, SSBC disc brakes up front and rebuilt drums out back. Unfortunatly for the car I think now that I am on this Pro-Touring/Resto mod way of thinking there will be big changes coming. Here is what I am thinking for the future (hopefully sooner than later): Motown 427 LS from Bill Mitchell (or something similar in the 650HP range), Keisler T56 Magnum, either a 12 bolt or 9", a new Chris Alston/Hot Rods To Hell/ or Martz front clip and either wilwood or SSBC discs all around. Oh and also some 17" (maybe 18") Center Line Sundance series-Boulevard wheels. I have attached some "ok" pics of the car and await your thoughts, comments, ideas and/or Ways to save money and get this thing on the road and autocross track. Thanks for looking, Later!

Welcome to the forum, I've had two Novas and I'm currently looking for a third for my free bbc to go in. I love 'em.:firefire:

Looks like a great starting point.
Don't worry about saving money. Figure out a way to get more of it.
Mortgage the house and go for it!
