She's always been "into" cars, this is her first Chevrolet. I'm just happy she likes her new ride and I'm getting a real kick out of her "modifying-itis", my credit cards may not be so happy though.

Heck she can spend whatever she wants too, its fun seeing the wheels turning and the smoke coming out of her ears as she plots and shops. Now if she starts wanting to cut the body off and fab up a tube frame so we can install a big block engine, then we'll talk, because that's what I'm working on.

Mopar huh, bet that can make for some interesting discussions there sleeper. But to be honest I really like the Challengers, sadly I have the same issue with them that I do in the Camaro, no bleeping headroom...ugh!

Neither, I'm looking at maybe picking up a salvage HHR and turning it into a weekend project for me and some of my NASCAR fabricator buddies. Its in the early planning stage now, we're talking about something that may take months to get going and months to finish. But I have this lonely L-36 427 engine looking for a home, along with a 9" Ford rear end with a quick change, and this really nice Jerrico transmission among other parts kinda kicking around.
