      hi protouring.com

      hi, i dont have a car yet, but when i turn 16 and get my liesence (im 15 now) i plan on getting into the awesome world of pro-touring muscle cars . right now im just looking through pictures and reading articles on this site about builds. there are so really cool cars here!
      anyways ill be looking for a old dodge dart or challenger as my first car. i probably wont have tonnes of money but i want to get it into good shape before i upgrade the suspension, motor and stuff. im in 3 different metal/auto/fabrication classes right now in school so hopefully my skills will come in handy :P
      awesome site

      Welcome aboard junior. Keep the dream alive at all costs and you wont regret it. My recomendation is to start with brakes and suspension first. Horsepower needs a stable foundation to support it. Good luck!!

      Like the Man says, brakes and suspension first, you can add power and looks later.

      Ditto what the others have said.
      Welcome aboard.

      One of my old bosses back when I was just a tad older than you, used to say about cars: "you have to be able to steer 'em and stop 'em!"
      "The rest is just incidentals."

      Brakes suspension first, baseline the engine and running gear before you start modding to be able to judge your benefits and not grenade a weak point.
      Then move on to cosmetics;)

      Best of luck my young friend and keep us posted.
