Default Car Craft Article

My SD Trans Am is in the most recent issue of Car Craft. Article was originally written for High Performance Pontiac magazine about the time it went under. To my surprise it came out in Car Craft instead. I'll try and post the link: http://www.carcraft.com/featuredvehi...social32809766

Very nice article!

Brooklyn, NY was a surprise place for the SD to find it's way?

I saw your burn out video on Facebook this morning too.

4 speed vs auto I'd say not twins. I'd say nice pair of Brewster/ cloth SDs

Looked at the pics of this car........ is it correct that the vin stamp on the block is N144932..... shouldn't it be 23N144932 ?? Has anyone seen other vin stamped blocks missing the 2 numbers before the letter like this one?
