Default GMHTP shouts out to LS1tech again for a "HOSS"!

In the April issue there is a bad motor scooter Hugger SS featured. Tim Tosto is the owner, and is apparently on this board somewhere. I didnt want to post it in the Midwestern section because of fear that I will get that "Double Post" business goin' on.

Anyway....How Many Hugger Orange SS's and Z28's we got rollin around in Texas?

BTW: Tony was your's a hard top or t-top?

Mine was a T-Top car.

Hey! That's really cool! The second Hugger that I have seen featured in GMHTP in the last year. I knew these cars were special. I just need to get the build number for mine. I have had people freak out because it is orange, then double freak because it is a hardtop.

I think that there is a major list started out there somewhere, but I don't know where the .xls file is.

No, he sold that one and bought a real '99 HOSS from someone in Oklahoma. He ran it at SAR last year at the LS1Tech Shootout... ran like a 10.16 or something. Then he threw a rod (literally, breakage) while driving it around on the street here, so it's in limbo right now.

Edit: here's a pic at SAR
