Default 72 cutlass project, I need more time!!

I do not get much shop time anymore I work full time support a family of five and the wife is in law school, so after work I get about 2 hours a day to work on my junk. So I stopped by the shop on the way home from work and started thinking of a project I had started for another site, Its a good site but a community idea on building a car just does not work, especially when its my time and money, so with a bad taste in my mouth I put a cover on it and forgot about it. I was messing with the Camaro a bit and started thinking about it, so I busted the covers off and had a look, I forgot what a cool and clean car it is. When the Camaro is done, well I'm back in Olds mode... Have a look. on one pic the calipers are switched I was messing with hose angle so im aware.

This is what I started with


Boxed frame






Corvette spares for rollers to clear brakes

In the early days of ATI (Procharger) My business was doing R&D for the marine kits. I was the first outsider to see and play with the big head units, I was the first to ever pull over 1000hp with one on the dyno, now that seems like nothing, at one point I had so many of the things I used them for door stops... Well after I built the engine for the Olds, I was looking at it on the stand thinking I wanted the car to stay all Olds as far as the engine but wanted it a little different, so I dug out a smaller head unit, and built a bracket. Why Not
