Great Picture
thanks for sharing
It had a 70 400 from a Grand Prix with a spun rod bearing in it. Also had a bad 3rd gear n the M21. But it was a great deal. I took the engine and transmission from. my GTO and was street racing in a week.

For a short while I used 15x4 Rockets on the front of the GTO. They had skinny 5.60 x15 tires on them, the same as used on the VW Beetle. Totally useless on wet pavement, they would barely hook on dry pavement for a left or right turn. I took them off after a couple weeks.

Mickey Thompson’s on the back Moroso drag lites up front. The slicks were mounted on Rocket wheels.

Turbo69bird, guess who ended up with the Trans Am...
