A couple of the Hour -Cal members,been enjoying this thread. A car I watched running down 101 south. A nasty whine,caught my way,to work. In the world of Pro Turding,and LS/Hemi swaps,quite refreshing to see.What you think?..
Blowers,and Pro Street.....

I have owned Supertrick's, Centerlines, and Weld's before, but that Billet Specialty wheel is one of my favorites.
Getting back to the Pro Street deal.....That Vega wagon is cool. In the late 70's, my neighbor built a 73' Hatch with a small block for his cousin. Full frame, 12 bolt, glide, but still streetable.....Shocking to me, it actually went 10.0's at close to 140 with slicks. Glad I didn't wager any money on that one. Way faster then I thought.
I shouldn't have been surprised though. His uncle, the builder, had a 60's built, 23' T-bucket with a crate LT-1 350, "lol"...... At a nostalgia meet with no real rules, he ran the "T". I was at the starting when he left smoking the tires just after the hit, making a extreme right hand turn into the grass. Completely backing out of it, rolling back on to the track and getting back into it and completing the pass..........Blew my mind, 11.30@ 128.
