Sweet ride, front end needs to come down some.

Not a fan of it starting life as a 6 banger (like my Z28 badges ) but you can pick those cars up CHEAP with high miles.

Very nice

This was a local Lubbock car, original owner was Tracy Dennis of Sunset Racecraft who does our current engine machining. The 430ci motor isn't in the car yet but there will be more pics of progress soon.

Being a 6 cylinder car doesn't really matter anymore, it was bought brand new for this work to be done, hence the ~170miles on the odometer. It was raced a season or two with a 380ci SBC, which isn't the type of motors we do, the LS1 swap should fit nicely with our type of racing.

What size frame rails did you use on that one? What size wheels and tires? Did you get that from SW Racecars or was it fabbed in house? I have a ton of questions.

All of Jay's cars were bad ***. My fave was the black car.

What's up Ryan! Nope it wasn't wrecked. The car hasn't had many passes on it since it was built. It's almost done now though. I'll try to get some pics of it up with the motor in it!

Yep, it was his. It's pretty nice, but we are making some changes. I'll let you know when we bring it to Ennis.

Sorry to necropost, but the pics are down. Can you put them back up or something. I wanted to save them to my computer and I'm sure others would enjoy seeing your badass work too.
