The time has come. Engine is going to a builder next weekend if nothing pops up. Should have it back sometime in January. It's finally happening!

I was bored so I pulled the passenger side head off. This... really doesn't look that bad, at least to my un trained eye. Certainly not the nightmare it looked like on the borescope. I don't quite...

It'll happen some day, I'm sure... I'd feel worse if it were sitting outside or something, but it's safe in a garage at least. I will say while my friend and I were messing with it, a Cardinal showed...

Well... news that surprises nobody- cylinder walls will need to be honed at the least. Noticeable scratches- vertical and horizontal. Didn't get pictures as it was on a borescope my buddy brought...

As far as I know they all had it. My grandfather's did... but it had been painted at least twice by the time I was growing up

This spec GTS and an '03 SRT-10 vert are my dream Vipers. I can't say I'll ever own either, but, damn, I want one.

I'd be curious to know what the extra sound deadening was in the Deluxe interior cars. From what I remember seeing, my car has zero deadener left in it.

Did these come in E60-15? Not that it matters, since I won't run 50 year old tires, but the vision I have for my car is E60s in the front, L60s in the back. If they ever repop these, I'm in trouble.

Those turbines look so good when they're clean, but, man are they a PITA to keep them that way. I speak from much experience.

Well, no. I think it'd sort of defeat the purpose. It's partially to answer the question of what happened to it. Plus you've got to realize- we probably can't afford to buy the car even if I find it-...

In Wes' defense, I don't have the VIN to the car. That's where I was hoping a PI could pull some strings and dig it up. I should mention, in addition to LMC and Performance Years, I've posted it on a...

Apologies if this isn't the right place for this, but, Dad will be turning 55 in May. I think it'd be really cool to surprise him and reconnect him with the '73 Firebird he had when I was born....

I would definitely not ever take it back to stock. The car has more history the way it sits now, I think. And, I'd run the slots full time but that's because Magnum 500s don't really do much for me...
