    I'm trying to convince my wife this would be a nice suspension upgrade for my Monte Carlo. I could cut out the floor and fire wall, drop the body on and pick up a nice LS motor and six speed. She's not seeing how good a christmas gift this would be.

    I think it would make an excellent Christmas gift, and if you gave it to me I would even let you drive it some too.

    Great Christmas gift, lousy sleeping quarters.

    I'd drop the LS in and leave it just the way it is.

    Well, I will try, but I haven't met many women who "get" me.

    That looks like it used to be a (NASCAR) stock car...

    It was an old Nascar North car. I'm hoping if it doesn't sell he still has it when I get my opt out check from work the end of the year. I was hoping to get a 110" chassis but $600 for a roller is a pretty good price.

    Not a bad price for a roller. Sad part is... that thing would be legal for "street stock " classes at the local bullrings with a little work

    They are way to heavy to be a competitve street stock or late model though up here. Most of the late models are built of smaller tubing and have a smaller upper cage.

    How about a GT-1 car? Cheap way to get into it.

    I'm not really looking at having a race car as much as the street car I really wanted as a kid. I've always wanted one of these :
