I seen the car from sat. it doesn't look bad should be all fixed up soon. Looks alot better then it could have.... From the view I got (up front 
) I would have thought it was gonna be used for pop cans... It really looks like its only gonna need a hood,fender,bumper cover, headlight and tail light, Maybe a rear quarter panel.... And of course a drivers seat due to the **** stains

... But on a good note after a front axle, shock change he came back to win the feature by over a half a track
Heres a pretty cool in car video action....

Lol, haven't really been looking, figured i would just be teasing myself by looking until now... i still need to figure out what i want to do with the next build... TA, Camaro, Vette, GTO, stock cube, 383, 408, NA, n2o, turbo, sc, or keep it stock or basic bolt ons... Hell i don't even know how much i want to spend
I would do a auto w/stall, front mount single turbo, stock cubed forged internal short block, 6.0 liter heads ported by al, carb intake with elbow, and wicked fuel setup.... should only cost around one million dollars still with in your budget

I can't say I blame you as I have been wanting one for years.Best bang for your buck would be to find a high mileage F-body that needs a new LS1. Spend the extra money in modding a new motor and pick your setup.
Good luck, and keep us up to date on whatever you decide.

Maybe a chassis that hooks like there's no tomorrow with an engine and trans that can make CRAZY numbers, with a few changes, straight from the factoryCongrats on the future sale man! You're gonna see one pissed off guy if you buy a Supra before I get one though I can't say I blame you as I have been wanting one for years.

Supra's seem to be SO over priced though, that's the killer. It's gonna be hard to find the right one for the right price
But more than likely I'll end up doing what you said and by a good condition f body with less than desirable amount of miles
Out of curiosity, are there any differences (or what are the similarities) between the V6 and V8 shells other than the engine mounts, engine (and components), trans, rear end, and suspension? Mainly are the rear end and suspension mounts and bolt patterns the same...

So I called EPP to see if they had any BMR sway bar brackets in stock and I was told that all I need are 3 inch exhaust clamps and no welding required, so its going on Friday! Hooray
Your welcome, you can give me the $500 finders fee when ever you get the money. He said it would be 10-14 days. If I could go back I would have bought a car with a blown up motor or a roller. Then build a 408 built for n2o and make that bitch hook. You wouldn't be able to drive it right away but it would be well worth it.
Ouch, sorry about your luck Scott. Are you getting rid of the c6's?
