Kindig does some fantastic builds. I have come to really like the Ring Brothers cars. They are master of the subtle makeover and use carbon fiber better than almost anyone. https://ringbrothers.com/gallery

I'd take them all. Nice to see beautiful actual drivers. Not like what they made on shows like Pimp my Ride, etc.

SgtDag I had a 68 Firebird HO (High Output) with Standard shift and no air condition. That 326 with a 4 barrell would go so fast it was scary. Needed AC so got a Cutlass S which I loved.

Outstanding!! I’ve owned mind since I was 15 and I turn 40 this year. It’s a ‘68 400 but I have it down to the frame now. Front clip is painted and now body work. I’ve already done a rear subframe.

There are some killer rides in that gallery. Some of them are just mild and some are wild. As a motor head I can appreciate all of them but would tend to levitate towards the milder ones.

They did put in a more aggresive cam in 72 . I believe the 1970 version was rated at 330HP

I know the owner and the builder. Been to SEMA twice.. Takes alot of money to get a car looking good.

So glad my grandson feels the same way as I do about let them set high and level ' He and my son just got through putting new rear springs on his 66 Comet I gave him . They also put new 390 big block springs on the front end because it was a 6 cylinder car and that big old 351 Cleveland made it squat down in the front . They just finished the rear springs last night . Can't wait to get the pictures .
May your wiener schnitzel always stay above your lederhosein.
