Starting a frame up on my first truck. Pics are from when I was 16 in 1991. Im Building it now to run on road course tracks and auto cross events. But Not a trailer queen.

My plan is 500-600 hp ls3, Tremec t56, 9" ford (watts link), splined sway bars. I love the late 60's Trans-Am cars, so I'm sure it will influence the build. I plan on showing it at the same time beating it on an autocross.

Here are some pics from the replacement panels. Most had to be replaced because of rust, but the back panel was becaused by a sand blaster not taking his time.
