awesome! My son and I started thrashing on a third gen when he was 14. He bought a bolt-on fourth gen when he turned 18, I bought a similar one shortly thereafter. We have a ball wrenching on them together and then going to track and lining them up against each other. The only problem is almost three years later both cars boosted and going faster than we ever thought we would. LOL It's been a challenge and a blast but the bonding has been priceless.

Lining up racing each other sounds really cool!!! I have my eye on an 85 IROC (Roller) to possibly pick up for him.. He has recently shown an interest in the 2nd gen Ford Lightning's... Think i'll let him buy one of those on his dime...
The 01 is a little nice for a first car...
He's a great kid though.... Ya never know.
Thanks for the kind words

Well JP, This car is in such great shape, inside and out... and the fac that it is a one owner, female DD car for years... I think I am going to hold on to this one.
Ryan saw vid's where you and I were at Ennis,,, he really likes the Ford Lightning's (2nd gen)... I still have another year before he begins to drive.
No motor plans right now for the SS.... Simple bolt ons', and a nice stall will suffice for now... I should have some spray for the next RR event for the vette...
How's the C6Z build going?
