I can't stand the excitement. Got the GTX home late last night! It's not perfect, but I'm glad its not. It it was would not want to drive it! It is a very nice street/strip car. Lots of nice details like the dash is fully restored. Hodge Restoration got it this far (I have to give then great kudos!) and now its my turn to finish it. John Holt did the suspension and cage work.

Its got an S60 rear with 4.56 gears (think that was a mistake) and a Gear Vendors OD. 30 inch tall tires. Tranny is a fully rollerized 727 with steel drum and A&A brake. Caltracs rear suspension. Aerospace front disc brakes and stock 11 x 2 1/2 drums in the back. Motor will be a 505 with Sidewinder heads. Shooting for 10.70's to 10.80's for the car out of the chute.

Amazing went from a bare shell in August to what it is today in such a short amount of time.

My best guess is 3800 to 3900 lbs. That includes me (I'm 250 lbs). Not exactly a lightweight race car..........

That is going to be awesome.... Looks Great! Keep up the progress pics...

Sweet! I love white!

Car looks good, Mark!

The car is gorgeous! Congrats on getting her home!

Looks fast just sitting on the trailer!
