87 Grand National. The original badass hairdryer. Ultimate sleeper. I got many strange looks from people after I outrun them with just a quite little v-6.

Yes, had it gutted down to the bare minimum, weighed just a bit over 2000 lbs

Was and still is my favorite truck I have ever built , wish I kept her and did a LS swap , popped the 383 with many 150 shots in the 1320, but one unlucky pass she snapped a rod and destroyed the block and heads....was a very sad day and at the time did not have the money to build her again

Easy. The C5 or C6 Corvette. Easy to work on, relatively inexpensive and great looking cars. Chevy lost their damn minds with the C7 - ugly as hell, like something someone in a Japanese animated movie would draw up.

I would love a built C6 Z. Also call me crazy but i love the S85 V10 in the bmw's. Dad had a M6 for a little while and i fell in love with that motor. Would have bought one if they werent such a money pit.

I sold my 5th gen and looked at a us d C6 z06. But in the end ended up buying an AC Cobra replica. Fun car with crazy power to weight with about 500hp at the wheels. Have been building it is not a track car for the last couple years.
