hello everyone! i have joined your forum hoping to learn the ways of building a pro-touring car. my ride is a 69 gto that i have been slowly chipping away at. I have been trying to get back into the v-8 world. i worked at a import performance shop building engines and trannies so going back to these v-8s is kinda confusing haha. i started out with my poncho and now i'm back at it! hope to learn alot from you guys! here are some pictures of the project -Scott0
8 years ago when i drove it in highschool.

Shortly after i got out of school i started tearing the car down. the 40 yr old wiring scared me, the suspension needed some work.. and i was getting tired of the old interior..
I put a painless harness in the car, freshened up the interior (2006 gto front seats, aftermarket gauges, flaming river column, all new vents and dash trim), gave it a full energy suspension poly bushing kit, hotchkis springs, kyb shocks, and the motor is a fresh pontiac 400.
