Under the index for under a grand!

Nice 180 degree job.

One of my racing buddys just bought a 1979 Pontiac GP out of the local shopper for 500 bucks and through some good scrounging, good dealing and(hopefully) good luck we are going to try and get it under the U/SA index for 1000 bucks or less(or more) not counting the price of the car.
We've got it in the garage and up in the air so stay tuned for updates.

So, it's been 3 years and 8 months since I last had this poor old GP out at the track. That last day, the crank in the $200 short block broke and the car has become another place in my shop to sit stuff on (LOTS of stuff). I'm thinking of resurrecting the parts out of it and sticking them in something a little more presentable.
Is there any interest out there for me reviving this thread?

Definitely, I love reading about your low buck projects

[nickh]

Yes Sir Billy

[kansas stocker]

We never stop learning, Billy! Keep those cards and letters coming!
