that pic just goes to show if you're going to drive a chevy you better bring a spare with you...most people just have a tire, Ryan brings a whole car!

JK...I'm sure you'll make it plenty fast, I like it in white.

It wasn't that bad to drive at night, Mike. The sides back are 20 and the whole windshield is 35. I had HID's in the car and you could barely tell the windshield was tinted at night. I'm probably going to pull the tint off and put 35 on sides and back and some 50 on the windshield (if any at all).

I had already built this car once. It's actually an LT1 car. I put the front clip and rear spoiler on the car, put brand new GM leather in it, did the roll bar (6 point, drop down side bars), shaved the antenna, LS1 front and rear brakes, minor suspension (KYB AGX's, Eibach ProKit, panhard, 1LE upper control arms, 1LE rear control arms, 1LE front lower control arms, 1LE front sway) and a few other things.

Right now, I'm in the planning stages. It will probably be a year or 2 before the car gets together as I'll accumulate all the parts then assemble. Until then, it will just sit in one of the garages.
