      Not new, but an introduction..

      Been on the site for some time mostly just admiring all the great rides and getting ideas.
      I have a 1970 Buick (pic attached) only car ive ever owned, it was my dads car, he gave me the car when I was around 18...for FREE!!

      I had no idea what to do with my car, I just knew I wanted some nice wheels and a killer stance lol, but after searching google I came across a link for pro touring cars..I spent awhile looking at the cars and learning about them and I knew that I wanted to build my car this way!
      I know every single thing I want to do with the car and put it in it, but im poor lol, I try to add something new to it every paycheck, or save up for something big.

      Its ganna be a looong while but I WILL finish it the way I want it someday!

      Thanks guys for the great site.

      That car has some serious attitude! The stance, color and wheels all work together nicely. Lives up to your screen name.

      Man that's a sweet ride. What do you have for suspension? I'd like to have my Cutlass sit like that.

      It has a stock 455 Buick/TH400 , Im still undecided if I should build up the 455 or get an LS motor

      It has 2 inch drop spindles in front and 3 inch lowering springs out back (for now)

      Build the Buick why be normal. get with TA performance in AZ they build some of the baddest Buick motors around. If your GS is a factory Stage 1 you already have the 360hp( under rated) 510ft lbs of torque.

      510 ft. lbs from the factory?? I bet those pull like a freight train.
