Going to keep this one for a while but I might sell the S60 rearend and wheels off of it. I want a deeper dish in the back and a differend style wheel so it will require a narrowed rear. I'm thinking hugger orange with white stripes.

Thats funny I watch craigslist all the time and missed it there. I found it on Racingjunk. I was not quite ready for a car to build yet but this is what I have wanted to build so I couldn't pass it up.

LOL He will get over it. He just wants my rearend. I'm glad to hear that dude is finally moving on his motor . I would have run out of patience months ago. You think he will be mad if I build a junkyard 5.3 and turbo setup and beat up on the stroker LS3
