With all that fog, I think you made the right choice.

Did you ever get back to the dyno with either car?

That Sunbird is badass, I would love to have that car! Way back in the day I had a v8 Vega and a v8 Monza. I have been searching locally for another little street rod like the Sunbird/Vega/Monza in roller form without any luck.

Once that Sunbird gets a little more track/tuning time its gonna be a rocket!
