Wow, what a great reception! Wish we had this kind of activity on the A-Body forum that I'm on as well lol. This site is overwhelming with all the info here. You all know how to do it right!

Would love to meet you Jared as well as James since you all live close by. Your Grand Prix is beautiful. Brings back good memories.

I normally say welcome to the site from Houston, but more specifically, welcome to the site from Spring. Have you seen this upcoming event?

Jared

Welcome from Iowa. That is a good looking ride! What wheels are on the car now?

"Hood says LT4... Old style or new? "


The motor is actually the very first gen of the LT4 used in 75 & 76 A-Bodies. It's a 400 4BBL motor out of a 75 Laguna S-3 parts car I scrapped a few years back. Below is the one I currently own with the same motor. It's still on my engine stand waiting to find its way under that hood. Right now it has an L82 350 which is still a step up from its original 305.

Hopefully we get some good weather in the next weekend or so. We could meet up at a informal car show they do at Hwy 59 & Hwy 99 every Friday night. Also we head to the Niftee 50ees show they do in The Woodlands every Saturday evening starting next month I think. Been there many times and a lot of great rides show up there.

Thanks! The wheels that are currently on it are in the 2nd pic. But they have been Plasti Dipped black like the original wheels which were 18x8's on all 4 corners. The new ones are 18x8 on the front and 18x9.5 in the rear.
