      So I figured I would come back with some updates on my progress. As many of you know I dedicated my off duty time, energy and vehicle to charity. For those who don't know the charity name is L.E.O.-F.A.S.T. The Law Enforcement Officers Family Assistance Search Team Foundation. http://leofast.com/
      Please check it out. We have been slow to take off but consistency has been paying off and we are growing recognition.

      I first want to thank our First automotive Major Sponsor Paul Falcon of LS1 Excitement without his help and donation of shop time. LS1 Excitement has been helping this project come to life in so many ways and we are blessed to have thoughtful professionals helping us out.

      I wanted to post a little history of the car first. I bought this car from an Air Force F16 Fighter Pilot, I guess he had a real hot rod that came stock with missiles and a after burner. Maybe that's why it was neglected. I went to look at the car and it took some convincing the wife that this car had potential. She couldn't see the muscle in this muscle car. It was full of potential a 400cui worn out motor, cruise control, white vinyl top, massive 14" steel wheels and A/C.

      After a couple of cans of black primer and some neat wheels she started to change her mind and see some of the potential.

      Once I gathered enough supplies and some funds I hired some local buddies to help get her painted and looking good.

      With her tail high, I wanted to get the ultimate stance so we installed ridetech's air suspension and strong arms. The stance and dramatic change from stock was astronomical. I couldn't believe the difference in the ride and performance. Everything else on the car was bone stock, minus mufflers. Our first road trip was to RTTH that summer and had a ball on the Tail Of The Dragon. If you haven't been to RTTH's your really missing out!!!!!
