    Something like that...I'm not really sure what to call them anymore. I been building/restoring cars, bikes and military vehicles since the 70s but now days there's StreetRods, HotRods, RatRods, LowRiders, ProStreet and I'm sure some I've never heard of so I just call them cool old cars.

    Here's what I plan for it...you guys tell me what it would be.

    Blown SBC (350), 700R4 transmission, narrowed 9"...will keep the body pretty much stock and I would like to retain the stock springs front and rear as well as the front axle but convert to disc brakes. As for wheels I think maybe a set of Cragar SS.

    Here's my last project...'69 Corvette with 454.

    Good to see more TN Hambers on here. That looks like a great Buick. Just don't "Street Rod It". You can make a really cool and unusual traditional rod out of that thing. Just lower it, and drive the hell out of it.
