Got my Cutlass on the road a couple years back...just making it nice now (interior, tuning, other performance goodies, etc).

Main project right now is my 85 Delta 88...which is hardly a muscle car...but will be a luxury muscle coupe when I'm finished dropping my 425 Rocket in there.  


68 Olds Cutlass ~ 350 Rocket
85 Delta 88 ~ 425 Rocket
02 Silverado 4X4 ~ 5.3L

Been working on a 78 ***  I recently picked up an all original 455 1970 Bonneville for a donor engine (67K original miles) for $200 bucks.  Last month I picked up a 1977 Toronado.  Not quite a muscle car, but it is a really clean car and gets plenty of looks from onlookers.

After fiddling around with a ton of projects that didnt get finished because of a new job and other things, Im back to working on my Cougar. I sold my Galaxie, my other Cougar and my 72 Lincoln a while back just to make things a bit easier to manage.

The Cougar has recieved more attention this year than it has in a while. Aside from finally giving it a factory hood scoop with functional home made ram air (Home Depot garage door seals kick ass!) and toying with new wheels (back to 15s!) its been a money saving fest to try and get the coin for an engine swap. My FMX is taking a poo so i have a perfectly good C6 sitting around. It has an FE bolt pattern though, so it means when i swap that in, ill just have to put in that 428 thats been sitting around assembled for 2 years now.

Oh darn

65 Tempest 2 door post (GTO was way beyond my budget). Currently has a 400/4 speed. Looking for a good 455 core to build. Came out of the Cleveland area originally so it had a fair bit o rust. Drove the car from Detroit to Montana. Once home I found that half the body mounts were completely rusted away. So far I have replaced the floors, truck and quarters. Doing it all myself so it hasn't broke the bank...yet.
