Here are a few pics of the Ole Ugly setup I got

You've got a beautiful show quality car, but I'm still not a fan of that style induction on a 2nd gen. They just look like something that should be on a tuner import car. JMHO

That's cool bro, I was just razzin ya bit. There are a lot of things out there I am not a big fan of, but to each his own right! Thats what makes this such a great Hobby, you can buy an old car and fix it up the way YOU want to.

Glad you understand! I'm sorta old school in my car tastes, so haven't gotten into the pro touring thing.

I'm not really into the pro touring thing. I just want my car to handle like its on rails. The big wheels are just to clear the brakes.

I personally love the pro touring set up if the person does it right! But to each his own. I understand that some of the older gents that grew up in the muscle car age haven't quite grown accustomed to the idea. But everyone has their own tastes.

That pretty much describes me to a tee!
