Pics of my 64 SS as promised

I posted a couple of these in my introduction as well.

Here's when I first started racing about 20 years ago.

When I was racing in super gas class here in Arizona.

540ci BBC. approx 950hp. Ran a best time of 9.63 in the quarter. I pulled this motor out and installed a mean little 383 a couple months back so it's a bit more streetable now.

The new 383 stroker I installed is pushing around 600hp.

I'm still in progress of cleaning her up and making her completely street legal again. I'll post more updates as I go.

I knew Grumpy would be drooling. Nice car.

Thanks everyone! It's a ton of work to get it street legal again after so many years of racing. It's certainly more difficult to make a street car then a drag car! Here's another pic from a some time ago.
