so far i ordered new floor pans, new carpet and im putting jegs racing seats in it and there are no back seats in it (yay!! ppl cant bum rides off me when im drivin it)

i plan on getting either a cowl hood or an ss hood (which do you think looks better?) i can get either one for 25 bucks off my brothers cousins dad

im getting 4 nos bottle subwoofers and 2 alpine or kenwood amplifiers

i want to get 15 inch tourque thrust II's on it or maybe some tourque thrust d's

anyone recommend any good tires for drag racing? i want to get the best i can get

i plan on gettin my windows tinted as dark as the state allows me

i have an extra 350 sitting in a garage to put in it and i plan on upgrading it to a 383 stroker

here is going to be the color scheme for my car

lots of potential in this one. just be careful not to bite off too much at a time, you can lose your drive before it hits asphalt again, then you wind up with a lawn ornament, i've had several. And good luck with those floorpans, they're more of a chore than you'd expect! Took me a week of nights after work to get mine in, more cutting and welding than I expected, and some custom metal work in front of what the replacement floorpans cover...

Dunno what an SS hood looks like. They never made one.

Nice buy man hope to see alot out of this one. I dont believe they made an SS hood for the 2nd Gen. as nomad previously stated.
