Default 2011 hot rod power tour

http://www.hotrod.com/powertour/2011...ion/index.html


Yup, seriously considering saying screw it and just tossing a 6.0/t56 into the 68, slap a turbo on it, bondo up a couple of the really bad spots, and worry about doing the chassis for the following season.
I've been waiting for them to do a route like this again since the last east coast tour in 99. I did both east coast tours, 98 & 99, and had a blast.
I mean c'mon, port canaveral Florida, Nashville Tennessee, Indy, Detroit? It's like a gearheads dream!

So yeah, may just hack the old girl back together for another season and hit the highway. Screw all the other projects for another year lol. My wheels are turning...

Sounds like you're just as bitten by the bug as I am lol. I'm about ready to shortchange all my projects this year just to go.

I don't see how you could have a more perfect route for us here on the east coast.

Now why would you do this to me! I have almost identical plans for my 67. Either a 5.3 or 6.0(whichever i can get a better deal on) with a t56 and a turbo.

I wish I could do the Power Tour again. I had a blast on the 98 tour.

Another show Lady- Why does your car say Corvette on the engine? We have a Corvette and your car doesn't look like one. LMFAO

Hey this has been my plan for about two years now
Pretty sure I'm going to be making some other changes too. Just need to break out the old tape measure and see if my ideas will fit
