Some pictures of my latest project
I have been lurking in the shadows here for a while. I thought I would post a picture of the latest project here at my garage. It is a Superstock tribute car. It has most of the 68 superstock trimmings, wheel openings correct, A100 Van seats and lightweight mounts, correct looking hood scoop, back seat delete....
   There is a lot more. I will post more as progress continues. Great forums! |

I have no idea. I'm just planning on running brackets so far. If there is a class that I can fit in that would be great, but I am building this car for fun and the way I want it, rather than try to fit a NHRA class. The SS/AA is only a tribute to the early superstockers, not the class I am trying to fit into.
This is being fitted with a HEMI but not the usual. I am building a 5.7 stroker motor. XV is providing the heads and cam, Calliies is where I am getting the stroker kit, and Edelbrock is the intake (2 four barrel intake) There will be a 200 shot, with a 100 plate under each carb. Frank Adkins (chrysler performance upgrades and other publications) built the Trans with all the best including a trans brake and reverse valve body. Out back will be a 83/4 with 4.10:1 gears. I am looking for about 600 on motor and 200 shot from the hole all the way out. Should be a fun ride. It will never make the track or any events this season, but come spring I will be ready. Here is another pic. this one is from "downstairs":

I liked the idea of a spool for all the wrong reasons (cheap) but for street use that is absolutely out. I will be going with a sure grip/ locker with 4.10 gears. The drag radials you can see in the pics are what I am planning to run.
I am located in Newark Delaware. I also do a local TV show Crazy4Carz.Com TV it can be seen on the website if you go to the home page and click the link for TV. It plays through Youtube. Anyone interested in an Oil change day? I hosted this for the Dodge Viper Club at my garage and also for the Corvette Club (when I owned a Vette) |

Finished the interior this weekend. Drivers side door bar opens, the passender side bar is fixed. (wife has to climb over) The final parts for the engine should be showing up this week so off to the machine shop and in a couple weeks the engine should be ready to go in.
Here is an interior pic.
