Hi Guys and girls. Since I learned how to post pics today I thought I'd show what I've been up to with my 72. It's an old drag car that I found through a friend. His brother in law bought it back in the late eighties. It had just come from a body shop with new GM quarters, fenders, doors and hood. It sat ever since then in his garage with hay bales stacked on it. I tore it apart, stripped it and repainted what you see here. I have the rest of the body in fifnished primer, ready to paint. The engine is a GM 350 HO deluxe crate with a Scoggin Dickey TPI intake, 90 Trans Am TPI , Jims performance wiring and chip, WC T5 transmission, Flowmaster exhaust. I have Hotchkiss springs, front and rear installed, and am going with their sway bars when the time comes. Sorry for the quality of the pics.

Looks cool. Was the TPI setup hard to figure out?

One call to Jim's and the mystery is gone!! This guy knows what he's doing and can custom tailor the PROM and wiring for your application. I'm very impressed with his service for sure.
