Per request….I thought I would start a thread about our other passions and mine is definitely my Hot rod 1977 Pontiac trans am! I build this car and engine over the last 10 years and it has a 700 butler performance 461 stroker engine and a Holley terminator engine management system. Engine pro touring Fbody Viking coilover suspension. 4L80e overdrive trans mission. I take it to the track regularly and run high 10 second. Any questions please ask!

show what you got!

I had 2 1978's. The first was a black Hurst T top, 400 auto, WS 6, black interior. The second one was a red 400 4 speed, WS 6, black interior. It was a freak. It had 4 wheel disc brakes. That doesn't show up on the books until 1979. I went through 4 motors with the red TA. The first 3 was Pontiac's 400's. Each different. The last 400 had RA V heads on it. Found out the big block Indian motors don't like high rpms. The last motor was a Chevy 454 LS7 crate motor.

wow an LS7 would be pretty awesome! But I do love my butler performance stroker and my holley terminator shifts it right around 6k..just to be safe…But I still rip into the 10’s no problem

Ok, I’ll show off my other hobby vehicles. All are built by me and some friends (except the ‘18 HD Roadking). The ‘36 Ford is a full rebuild with a 5.3 LS, IFS, disc brakes, coil overs, etc. The ‘66 Chevy Sportvan has a 4.8 LS, disc brakes, full rebuild with paint coming this year. The ‘63 VW Bug is a RHD and had a full pan-off resto on airbags, and also just needs paint now. Oh and then my hard tail HD is a one-off frame and full build that we did in ‘04.
Thanks for letting me share these. No, we don‘t have kids and these are all driven regularly in summer and the Jeeps are slightly neglected.

The Jeep has eaten most of the fun car budget, so my eight-six is all I can swing for now.

Dreaming of a manual 392 Widebody Challenger one day though. Although the eight-six is a riot in the mountains and the track.

My other car is a 2018 Fiat 124 Spider Abarth.

The car barely weighs 2,400 lbs; has exotic Italian looks, a tiny 1.4T engine that punches above its weight (170HP), a mean sounding exhaust and a slick 6-speed manual transmission. The car is a total hoot to drive.
