63 LeMans Project
I just couldn't help myself. I have know about this car for over a year and it finally followed me home from Jerry Brock's place over the memorial day weekend. Still has the original 326 and the trans/rear suspension was in the trunk. Currently just sitting (literally) on a 10 bolt rear. I'm not sure exactly what the plan is for it yet other than the 535/TH400 from my Grand Prix will be going in. Mini tub? Full tube chassis? End Goal is to be light/consistent/and quick 16 fast.

Looks very familiar. If you ever plan to race in any nostalgia classes, just do the back chassis as a full tube chassis isn't allowed. If looking for the fastest/lightest car you can build, full tube. Good luck and keep us posted.

We need more Pontiac's in Nostalgia Super stock. I am almost usally the only one in nmca. There's also a Victory Series also. You can also run at Monster Mopar Events and The Hot Rod Reunion. There's a Monster Mopar @ Norwalk this year and Indy

Them's the rules. If it follows you home, you get to keep it.....

Man I don't know about this one. She is a bit ruff. Just finished cleaning out the coon crap out of the trunk. Maybe I paid too much.

Looks pretty good. Good luck with it! I vote no on the tube chassis, but that's just me. My '63 has a very nice rack and pinion conversion amongst other things. I've posted pics before, but will again if you are looking for ideas. You can get a decent tire under it without mini tubbing it.

I'm not sure I see anything "Nostalgia Super stock" about a MR1 block, highport heads, or sheet metal intake, and twin demon carbs. James you have your car about finished and have you weighed it? Hooter what does your car weigh?

just backhalf it, if it's really rusty. Mine is backhalf with a 4link 32 inch tires, 9 inch rear. car weight 3060 with me in it
