    Well it has been a year and a half since I bought the 31 A that started out as a turd. Finally getting around to upload some pics here, and build pics in my album to date. I know there are a million of these out there but here is mine anyway. Did alot of swapping ,trading,for parts and and did everything "inhouse". Every thing that was chopped, cut, or trmmed with the common number of 3". Its has a 69 327 with 26 spline camaro t-5 trans. GM 10 bolt with posi and 4:11 gears . Gearing was just part of a trade, may end up changing to 3:73 later if the t-5 overdrive don't cut it. Brother-inlaw is building interior now. It will have an oak dash with walnut trim. Floors are also oak tonge and groove left over from his house. Was hoping to have it on the road by now but..........what can I say. I have a real job I have to go to every day to get more monery to finish what I have named "The Bankrobber".

    You nailed it Bandit----so did you HRP. That's my favorite part of the movie. Lucas nailed it too with that sound job he laid on us. Goosebumps.
