It's a 31, I've been toying with building a 33/34 pickup, probably something a little less conventional and more daily driver friendly.

You know, I really don't, at least not on my PC. I didn't really think to document it very well. I'm sure my dad has some pictures of the original car and maybe some of the rough metal work.

You can PM me if you want any specifics on the build, though.

I always loved Z's. My first car was a 78 280Z. I finally got rid of it a few years back.

My 1972 Chevy Monte Carlo. My dad bought it brand new, claims he gave it to me when I turned 16, but I still consider it his (I'm 29 now).

It's nice to see a 70s domestic that isn't covered in edelbrock stickers and autozone accessories.

Under the hood I can stomach. Having spent tons of time at car shows where people list their parts on plaques, having a sticker on the shroud for the notable pieces is fine. It's the ones that are all over the back window, especially when they don't even have those parts, that drives me up a wall.

It's easy to forget that era of domestics can look good.

It's heavily scripted, of course. It's entertainment, not reality TV.
