Its a combination of things. But I want something with a back seat for the baby seats. I have a early 60's Impala in mind. I love the look of the bubble top cars. LS powered, big wheels and air ride. I would love to find a trade. Thats the gist of it.

Beautiful work, I'm actually helping a friend with a black on black '85 4WD with a 6.0L from an '02 2500 Chevy. I hope our project comes out half as nice as that one.

Good luck on the next build!
