Gunna start a build thread but it's more like a rebuild. I got an 89 Fox hatch at the end of summer and decided it would be a better chassis to put my turbo stuff in. So decided to start taking it down after I took out the trans at the track rental. Here's the car.
Nice clean looking car. Makes me miss my '88 GT hatch.
2014 GT Premium - Sterling Gray Metallic - MT82 - Track Pack - Glass Roof - Recaro seats - Spoiler delete
12.76 @ 114.04 bone stock. Koni yellow coil-overs, BMR watts, LCA and LCA relo brackets, Borla S-type axle back.
1966 Coupe - 331 stroker - Bullet custom roller cam - cam and motor installed and dyno tuned by Rodeheavers Hot Rod - Astro A5 - McLeod RXT - 486 to the wheels - more fun than my little tires can handle
1966 Oldsmobile Toronado - currently NOT on jackstands
Dammit. Makes me want another one.

Been working on the aprons gunna do a mostly smooth engine bay but can't figure out how to make the pics smaller lol. Once there done the motor is getting pulled out of the vert and shoved in there.
I like the white with the welds...

That's a good looking car.
Thanks for the compliments fellas. I also like the classic drag lites. This will be 5 bolt swapped 4 wheel disks drag lites for track duty and pro stars for street fun.
Looks great. Im a fan.
Started welding the holes up on the passenger side tower and ran out of argon in the welder so I'll finish up tomorow and post a pic or 2
First coat of filler on the tower...
Also got a slightly larger turbo for the lil 331.
Haven't got to much done. Both towers are welded and in filler that's about it far as work goes. But did collect some parts smooth approns came in from lmr bought a 97 rearend for the disc brake set up took all the brackets off and sand blasted and painted them. I'm going to probly rebuild the calipers since there off. And going to do the cut and flipped brackets to keep stock length axles.

Got one apron in going to get the other one in this week. Picked up a moser spool 31spline axles and c clip elms a few weeks ago have the housing gutted and prepped taking it to have the ring and pinion set up next week. Also have the rear disc set up ready to go when the rear end gets back. Will post some pics later in the week.
