In the summer of 92 the purple beater got a 375 horse power 360 transplant and a set of sticky tires... about a week and 30 street races later the car was starting to twist bad enough that the drivers door would barely close and the windshield started leaking. That winter it went to a chassis shop in Winnipeg for a roll bar, sub frame connectors,tubbing and a set of super stock springs.
25 years later the car is still a piece of junk...but it feels as solid as new car when you close the doors...without the investment in stiffening the car it would be in the dump by now (and some would still say it should be)
