Well heres what I got going that I can finally post on this board... Been wurkin on a few others but they don't fit here but, I finally started something for my own fun and a break... I decided to swap out the kit engine with the injectors for a blown Pontiac 421ci. mill... Traded out the kit wheels and tires for something outta the parts bin also... Going for a vintage '65-'66 styled Gasser with this one... Thanks for looking, more to come SOON... "Pzycho" Rob

Yay!!!! I haven't seen a good one like this in a while, and it fits right in!!!! From what I can tell of the box art, looks like a simple swap of a couple parts (wheels for numero uno!!!) and rear tires (a little BIG!!!), and the motor swap that you mentioned. Sounds like your right on target! It even looks like you can use most of the kit decals (I don't know 'bout that AA/GC though, but I could be wrong, and we don't count rivets here). This outta be very tasty!!!!

This outta be very tasty!!!! Rims and tires already being swapped as I talk now, using a 10 or 11 inch tire for the rears and littles up front, rims are Cragars... After asking around a bit on another board, I found out that this will run in AA/GS class for the '65-'66 seasons... I like also that this kit offers 2 front end setups, I opted to use the steerable front end it looks like it may put the nose up a little higher...
