Got to put the bird to the test at the Midwest Musclecar Challenge recently and all I can say is wow! The car was extremely well balanced and predictable, something I didn't expect out of almost 600hp with no abs or other nannies, especially on its first time out. More pics and video to come so stay tuned!

Holley LS Fest was a blast! How many of you were there? That was our first year as a vendor for our sister Co. Car Guy Trailers and wow, what a blast. We will be a fixture there from now on.

The patient is prepped for surgery; scalpel please, err, I mean sawzall. Time to say goodbye to mushy drip brakes and manual steering.

It's mock up time! Final mock up to get all the measurements needed to get the right stance, then its time to cut the front of the off for something more user friendly. The LS motor has been removed and will get a big thumpy cap swap and sheetmetal intake before being dropped back in between the fenders. As usual, we're under the gun to get it to Holley LS Fest in Bowling Green KY in 16 days. Who's going to LS Fest? Come see us in the Car Guy Trailers booth in the midway, the Packard and the Trans Am will both be there.

Found a new home for the 39 in Dallas, that paint was meant for TX sunshine! He's a true car guy, already swapping in a bigger cam!

Out with the old, in with the new! Phase 2 of the Bandit T/A involves upgrading the rear-end to a 9" with 3:73's and a rear disk brake conversion to handle all that added power. We're also upgrading the suspension to make this car a canyon carver. Look out!

With all the LSX Swaps we have going on in the shop right now (5 and maybe a 6th soon) it's fun to get back to my roots and do an old school carbureted, roller cam muscle car like the ones' I cut my teeth on. Thanks Zach Lauer for the video! I know Matt the owner will be stoked to get this ravenous bird back on the street!
