Smile Old member, no current posts, new car...

Hi, my name is Alan. I was a member of LS1.com back in 1999 for a few years after I bought my 2000 Z28. I also joined several other forums including this one but can't remember my old username. After I got rid of that car, I had always been impressed with the LSx platform and was working on a conversion on a '70 Chevelle when I signed up again back in 2009. I was mostly doing research without participating.

The day after Thanksgiving 2012, I took delivery of a 2013 CTS-V Wagon. I'm planning mods for that car currently. However, I've got another 1970 Chevelle conversion that I want to do with an LQ9 in the next year.

Pics of my Caddy are in my profile. I look forward to participating but you'll probably never notice.

Welcome back to the saddle Alan!

70 Chevelle, do you have any pictures of it you can post here?

Thanks,
Kyle

The '70 we did a few years ago belonged to a friend and I don't have any pics. The upcoming project I'm looking for a carcass. It's going to be a very unique build. Thanks for your interest.

Here's a pic of my restored '69 SS as a peace offering.
