Hello from the garage of never ending projects

Hey there! Long time GRM reader, but it took me lots of years to sign up on the board here. So I'll be hanging out, and introducing my garage of toys and fun things. And yes, my garage is a mess, but it's my man mess, so it's ok.

First, my daily driver:

I remember wanting that car the first time I saw it in a magazine in college working a job at a video store. Z06 for life, man.

And my less practical occasional driver:

I just started riding this year, and find it to be an excellent way to destress.

And the project that probably interests you most here, my 1971 Pontiac T-37 show-race car project:

That now looks like this in front:

And this under the rear:

With a 2005 GTO rear suspension subframe almost installed.

And that's it for now. I'll keep you all updated on the T-37, it should be a lot of fun.

Good stuff. Let us know how it all goes.

Interesting. I've seen LS transplants into old Pontiacs before, but never the late model GTO rear suspension. We'll need more information on that.

What he said. No tease. More pix.

Will do, those pics are a few months old. I'll get some updates over the next couple of weeks as I have some time off!

nice work, D_R! welcome aboard. one of my first cars was a '68 tempest, so i've got a soft spot for the GM A-body. definitely want to follow the build of your T37.

I hate you for all three of those rides.

Welcome.

hah!

Thanks!

Mmmmmm Z06! LOVE the T37 project! I'm a sucker for LSx swaps into anything, but with the GTO IRS as well? That's just plain cool! Don't forget to put them all in the "Reader's Rides". You can update them with additional pictures and stuff as you like, it's a pretty neat feature.

I'll have to do that! The Z06 gets more attention than the T-37 project. I just had to drop in a carbon driveshaft. My abuse finally led to the bending of the aluminum one, plus the car is getting ready for a TVS2300 hopefully next month.

My brother had a T37 back in the day, I loved that car.

Welcome.

Someone should have told me I had a pic of the stock wheels on my Z06 up there. Sheesh!!!

Great rides!

I had a 72 LeMans that never quite became a GTO.

Can you provide more pictures or specifics on the IRS swap?

Sure will. right now the frame has been chopped and sectioned, and I ran out of cutting wheels, so everything is still kind of dangling. I've almost got it in, though. I'll get some updates when it's fitting in a bit better.
