The Bel Air is a 55, 2 door with posts. It's in pretty bad shape, there are a few places where the rust penetrates the panels. It's got an all iron 406 small block, basically stock rebuild with a tame Comp Cam, 9:1 compression, and 2.02 heads. Then that got boring so I put a Weiand blower with a Demon carb on top, and it seemed to like that. It's also got a full MSD boost ignition, and a 4-speed manual with a floor shifter. It's a lot of fun, and will not stop smoking the rears until 4th gear! But it needs new suspension, brakes, body, frame, interior, and everything else. If I get my way, I think I'll go for a big cube LSX with a Whipple sitting on top.

[QUOTE=silicone boy;8140811]Mine is really unique. It's a 4 car, but one of the bays leads down to the basement.
I think I've seen your FD around town. Seeing as how I've only seen 3 since I've lived up here.

just a quick note to the guy with a tandem garage, for a work bench this is an idea.
get an old solid door or piece of wood, get door hinges. screw door to hinges then hinges to stud. basically the door can fold upto become a work table or remove stands and it rests against wall where it will take up about 4 inches of width in your garage. just an idea.

Nice, your gonna have to take me for a ride in that monster sometime. As for the 13b if its the tt version I'll ****** it up as long as it's in good shape. I've been looking at doing a Rx7 for awhile just never could find a tt engine cheap enough.

But then again I guess you dont need that elaborate of a garage @ home when you work @ a shop. I would like to have one of those small storage 4post lifts @ home, but @ work we have a pit, 2post, 4post and a scissor style alighnment lift that I can use whenever. If I ever build my own house I'd like to have one of those ramps that lead to a garage in the basment. That is sweet!!!!!!!!
