Looks killer! The door bar looks kinda high in the pics? At least with me in that seat it would be high, maybe just the angle though. How's she run?

im 6'2 so the door bars come perfectly between my elbow and sholder, the seats also realy low which makes it look higher. i hosted two vids of it running ill post a link to them in this thread. at the top.

Looks good, nice work. I used to have a '79 Camaro. Fun car, rode like ****, leaked everywhere, I was 20 and didn't care, drove from florida to new york and back again. I loved that car, I beat the hell out of it and it never left me stuck anywhere not even once.
I gave it to my brother and he did a frame up resto on it, car looks great but that drivers door STILL DOESN'T CLOSE RIGHT, hehe.
I'll bet you got trouble with your drivers door too.
Good luck with the project!

Damn that would be uncomfortable for me to get in but then again I'm shorter and I'm just used to the way my car is.

That's a nice looking cage, what kinda numbers you shooting for in terms of ET?

not too fast, its still a driven street car, i was gunna just do an 8 point but i figured just do it all at once if i ever want to spray the car into needing it legaly. plus i feel safer with it.
