I got to check out this car last weekend in person. He's been doing a lot of custom stuff all over the car, and will have a LOT of updates and pictures to post when he finally gets around to it.

Its a pretty awesome build.

This car made successfully made the 550+ mile weekend round trip without needing to open the tool box. Hopefully he'll post some updates soon.

This build thread could be called the panty dropper! Nice fab skills and creative ways to get bulky/odd shaped objected setup for modification to fit your vision.

Hats off!

Thanks for posting the pics, Kyle.

I've really slacked at keeping this thread up to date. I have a bunch of pics, and hope to find some time soon to get them posted.

I drove the car for the first time on Wednesday. Drove it to Hooters for lunch and back to the shop, about a 30 minute round trip. On Friday I loaded up the car with tools and drove it from central IL to Wisconsin Dells and back, about 550 miles. Lots of highway, stop and go, and a huge rain storm. Car never missed a beat, and didn't use any of the tools I packed. I'm pretty happy so far. Dyno tuning next week.

Nice update. The trunk lid must be from a 72 LeMans. 70 GTOs didn't have the Pontiac lettering across the back of the trunk.

Good eye. And I didn't know that. This car is actually a 1970 LeMans with a VFN fiberglass GTO front end. I hate the lettering on the trunk, and the GTO decals. I'm thinking about a fiberglass trunk lid and removing the rest of the GTO decals.

What do you have done for the front/rear suspension?

That rear pic looks like you have an anti-roll bar or is that just some pieces welded to the frame of the fuel pump bracket?

Any close ups of the rear all completed ?

And what wheel/tire combo if you don't mind me asking? Rear narrowed a bit?

Searched through the whole thread and didn't see alot on that?

Thanks!

Front and rear coilovers are Viking double adjustables. Rear 12 bolt was narrowed 2" per side. Strange spool, 35 spline axles, and brakes. All rearend and suspension was spec'd out by Eric at Midwest Chassis including the custom anti roll bar. Rear wheels are 15x12 4.5"bs. Tires for now are 325/50-15 Mickey Thompson drag radials.

Have a 70 GTO of my own I was playing with ideas of where to go with it and love your build.

Yep, its a VFN piece. Surprisingly good fit/finish and uses stock grills.
