86 T-type -- SecondHand Six

[KendallF]

Howdy folks..I have visited the site for a while but didn't register until today. I posted most of this in the intro forum and then I saw the "New Cars" forum. I thought I'd post here and let people take a look at the car. I could use some inspirational comments, or even some clever insults.

I'm working on an 86 Buick T-type that's been dubbed SecondHand Six. It started off as a joke because there wasn't a new part on the car...now it's CNC'ed on the intake and valve covers.



Quick specs:
Motor: 280 ci Stage Two Buick V6
Induction: twin 60-1 turbos, tunnel ram/sheet metal EFI intake
Trans: 400 (looking for a cheap 4L80E eventually...)
Rear: Ford 9"
Suspension/Brakes: B-body front spindles/1LE 12" rotors, rear F-body discs adapted to Ford 9", stock suspension mounts with tubular arms front and rear.
Engine mgmt: FAST

It is getting relatively close to moving under its' own power; I'm wiring it currently. It's taking me forever as I'm doing it on a nothing budget, and fabricating everything myself, from the engine machine work and assembly to the CNC machined parts and fabrication.

I have a web site for the car (in the signature) but it hasn't been updated lately so I'll put a couple of recent pictures here. My goal is to make around 1k HP, get it running and on the 1/4 mile, and add some streetability-oriented parts from there.
